• Seat belts are mandatory for all passengers.
• Speed limits: 50 km/h in towns, 100 km/h on rural roads. On the Autobahn, many sections have no limit, but 130 km/h is recommended.
• Alcohol limit: 0.05% BAC for most drivers; stricter rules for young drivers.
• Traffic lights: Follow the red-yellow-green sequence strictly. Running a red light results in heavy fines.
• Parking: Only park in marked areas. Blue zones often require a parking disc.
• Environmental zones (Umweltzonen): Some cities require a green emissions sticker on your car to enter the city center.
