Hello everyone, I would like to inquire about this. I am planning to self-drive in Austria at the end of the year. Now when I search for routes on Google, I find that some sections are marked as "road closure". What does this mean? Can't I drive on this road ? Austria Q&A
Has anyone bought an Olympic QBB ticket? When it came to the credit card payment, it just wouldn't let me pay and there was an error. I tried several cards but it didn't work ? Austria Q&A
Hi guys, I would like to ask, is the road good to drive to the nearby lakes from Hallstatt every day? Can we stop and enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way ? Austria Q&A
Folks, I have one more question. Regarding right of way, unless there are traffic lights or signs indicating right of way, the vehicle coming from the right shall have the right of way, regardless of the width of the road. How should this sentence be understood ? Austria Q&A
What is the road condition from Hallstatt, Austria to CK town in Czech? Where can I buy the highway ticket in Czech and where is the convenient place to exchange Czech crowns ? Austria Q&A
Okay, thank you. I looked it up and it seems that car rental companies will attach the expressway tickets to the car window. So, you won't need to buy those expressway tickets at convenience stores anymore, right ? Austria Q&A
Ck shuttle bus cannot drive in the central area of ck in advance from 10:30 in the morning to 3 in the afternoon. If you want to go from the public drop-off point to a hotel in the city, you can only walk, which can be quite painful, mainly because of the luggage. Have you ever encountered this problem ? Austria Q&A
I flew directly from Shanghai to Vienna. I picked up the car at the airport and stayed in Bratislava that night. Where can I buy the highway ticket when entering Slovakia? How many days can I buy? I am just passing by, and then go to Budapest on the second day ? Austria Q&A
What is better, to pick up the car at Vienna airport and return it in Salzburg, or vice versa? Please help with advice from someone with experience. Because the train station is in the city center, I am afraid of traffic jams, and I am not sure if the airport is convenient either. I just want to drive around the lake for 3 days, pick up the car in Vienna, and return it in Salzburg ? Austria Q&A
By the way, I wonder if you have to drive at the speed limit on the autobahn in Germany and Austria? I've heard that many locals don't care and drive very fast ? Austria Q&A
Excuse me, on my navigation from Bad Yishan to Vienna, it says there is a toll station. Will I have to pay toll when I get there? In addition, I forgot to ask about the gasoline model when I picked up the car. What should I do ? Austria Q&A
Last night at Vienna Airport, I just got the car from Hertz, and then on the way to the hotel, a left-turn red light was broken and never turned green. I noticed that the other lights had turned green many times, but the left-turn light remained red. Later, I saw that the other cars behind me changed lanes to go straight before turning left, so I had to make a tough decision to turn left because I was the first car. I don't know if I will be fined for running a red light? ? Austria Q&A
Hello everyone, I have a question. We picked up the car in Vienna and drove to Brno, Czech Republic. The GPS told us to take a highway, but in fact, that highway had not yet been opened. We didn't know that and kept driving on it. Then someone stopped us. We thought they were bad guys and didn't stop. But later they caught up with us and stopped us again, educating us not to drive too fast. They even took photos. Will we be fined for this ? Austria Q&A
It's really annoying to return the car in Salzburg. On the afternoon we arrived, we happened to meet an Austrian holiday, and everyone was off work early. Then we tried all kinds of ways to return the car by ourselves. The next day, we received an email saying that the left rear hub was damaged, so we rushed to the return point. They said the car had already been rented out. Yesterday, we received an email saying that we had to pay 320 euros in compensation. It's really not worth it! Fortunately, the insurance can be compensated, so be sure to buy insurance, otherwise you don't know what will happen ? Austria Q&A
Park on the roadside and check if there is a coin-operated machine. If there is, choose how many hours to park, insert the coins, print the ticket, and place it on the front windshield. Foreigners will check if there is anything printed on the windshield. If not, they may leave a parking violation notice. However, not all areas require parking fees, and the police may not always check. In urban areas, roadside parking generally requires a fee, but it is usually free on Saturdays and Sundays ?
