Do you know this? In Germany when driving, if there is no traffic sign, the principle is that the right has priority over the left. What does this mean? When driving on the straight lane, do I need to give way to the right turn vehicle on the right ?

Only suitable for the situation where two lanes can enter the roundabout at the same time.

Check if you have equal right of way. If you do, yield to the vehicle on your right. If you have priority, you don't need to yield.

Eastern Sea

For example, when waiting to enter the island at the roundabout, if vehicles arrive at the intersection at the same time, vehicles from the intersection on your right should be allowed to proceed first.

：Is it about an intersection without traffic lights or signs?

Excuse me, how do you drive at a roundabout in Germany? If the entrance is a red circle, you don't need to turn on your right turn signal. Cars inside the roundabout have the right of way, which means that you should let the car coming from your left go first. After the car on your left has gone, can you go? Also, do you need to turn on your right turn signal when the exit is green? Even if I am going straight out? Is that how it's understood ? Germany Q&A

Help, on June 22nd, I was driving in Germany from Berlin to Munich and the King's Lake. When I rented the car, there was a pre-authorization of 124 euros. After returning to my country, I checked at the end of July and found that it had been unfrozen, so I thought everything was fine. However, on August 6th, the bank called me and informed me that there was a pre-sale right of around 29 points, which they said was the handling fee of the car rental company. It should be due to a traffic violation, and the German police will send a notice of violation to the address I provided in my country. I don't know how to pay the fine. Also, the address I provided is my driver's license address, which has been demolished, so I won't be able to receive any notification. How can I pay the fine, and what are the consequences if I don't pay it ? Germany Q&A

When driving abroad, it is essential to fully understand the traffic rules of the destination country. If you are fined, you should inquire about which laws and regulations you have violated, learn from the experience to avoid repeating the offense in the future. If you do not reflect on your own violations and instead confront the situation with 'why am I being fined and not others, I must be treated unfairly,' then you will continue to make the same mistakes. Your mindset will be distorted, and what should have been a pleasant Road trip will turn into a tragedy ? Germany Q&A

Renting a car in Europe is completely unnecessary to purchase full insurance. If you choose to purchase additional "full insurance" on your own, it is your right to do so, and there is no issue of acceptance or non-acceptance on the part of the car rental company. This is a false dilemma. Additional insurance is an important source of income for car rental companies, and it is much more expensive than other methods, including purchasing insurance in Europe itself ? Germany Q&A

Yesterday when going down the slope of B500, the speed was greater than 80 and less than 70 (the speed limit is 70). I only noticed when I was close that there was a police car on the right side of the road in front of the car, and there was a police officer who seemed to be holding something (suspected to be a speed detector). He didn't let me stop, and I came directly. If a ticket is issued in this situation, how should it be calculated ? Germany Q&A

In Germany, there is a fine of 30 euros for illegal parking, which was paid by transferring the money to a local Chinese person. After returning the car, a notification was received that the full deposit of 1000 euros would be refunded within an hour. Recently, an email was received, which seems to be a charge of 24 euros from the car rental company. Is this the so-called penalty management service fee? How can this be transferred in China, and what are the consequences if it is not paid? Does anyone know ? Germany Q&A

Violations generally do not receive information so quickly, unless they are fines issued on the spot. The pre-authorized deduction should be part of the fees charged by the car rental company other than the car rental. Please carefully check the bill to see if there are any fees that you did not notice. The car rental company will not help you handle violations, so they will not pre-authorize fees to handle them ?
