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

I also rent from Sixt. In my opinion, in theory, it should be possible to go to the store to change the driver's seat, but the customer service told me that it's not possible.
