The car rental company asked me to submit my address, and I gave them the address on my driver's license. How was I supposed to know they were going to mail me a ticket? And I gave them my email address, so why didn't they just email it to me? Shipping international express is expensive, and it still has to be charged to us. Making such a simple thing so complicated! And then blaming us for bad credit in the end ? 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 ?

Encountered a crossroads turning left in Munich, there was only one light, and when it showed green, the opposite car came over and I dared not go. As a result, the red light stopped the opposite car and we went, but looking back, all the cars behind us were stopped. I wonder if I will be photographed ? Germany Q&A
Yeah, I was driving with my heart in my throat, afraid of holding up the cars behind me, and not daring to insert myself between two big cars. It was really not easy. Also, may I ask you: in the city, the speed limit is 30, and there are no cars in front of me. I'm also not daring to exceed the speed limit, driving like a plodding ox, pressing on the cars behind me. I always feel guilty about 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
Can you please recommend the best way to self-drive from Frankfurt to Munich in about 8 days?

I am driving in Germany and Austria. The traffic regulations require children to sit in safety seats, but I have two children in the back seat and also need to accommodate an adult. If I put two safety seats, I'm worried there won't be enough space in the back. I rented a BMW 5 touring car. Are the electronic eyes in Europe very strict? I want to remove the safety seats on the highway, but I don't know if it's allowed ? Germany Q&A
Hello, I rented a car in Germany to Austria and the Czech Republic, and then back to Germany. Caro company told me that I needed to buy a pass to go to the Czech Republic and Austria. On my way to Austria and the Czech Republic, I did not buy a highway ticket (I asked at the gas station on the way to the Czech Republic if they sold passes, and they said no). Now I am already in the Czech Republic. Do I need to buy one on the way back to Germany ? Germany Q&A

I decided to drive to the Eagle's Nest from Munich in the car rented in Germany on a whim, without doing any research in advance, and I had no idea that I would be driving on the Austrian highway, let alone that there would be a toll. I wasn't caught on the spot on the way back, but would I be fined later because of a surveillance video ? Germany Q&A
