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

In Germany, there is a fine of 30 euros for illegal parking, which was paid by transferring the money to a local Chinese person.

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 ?
