Driving a Porsche in Germany !! + FullMotion Rig! Essen Motorshow 2k16
I read conflicting information on weather or not we can rent a car at the Brussels-Midi station and drive in Oberwesel, Germany and back to catch a train to Amsterdam Someone on this forum shows the rental vehicle must have a special sticker to drive in Germany or we can receive multiple fines, I can not seem to find this information anywhere else on the web can someone please clarify.
There are two problems with driving a car in Germany was engaged elsewhere.
First, an increasing number of German towns, cities and urban areas have been introducing Umwelt areas you can not legally drive as the vehicle doesn t just apply cars displayed a sticker 4 green Umwelt Zone a rental car in Germany is already displaying a, a rental car elsewhere almost certainly won t aren t stickers expensive, but they can be a real pain to get especially driving weekend UWZ without a sticker makes you liable to a 80 every time the vehicle is spotted in an area you can avoid the requirement of the thumbnail by planning your trips so you always stay outside areas, for example, the use of public relations facilities Autobahn ever need the sticker even if they go through a UWZ, but off the slip road can.
Second, during the winter months and whenever the time is not only winter snow, driving a car in Germany and a number of other countries must be equipped with winter tires Although some 40 Belgians winter tires to their cars, car rental companies there and in France and the netherlands don t regularly so it doesn t fit well with their business model car rental companies in these countries will be winter tires, on request, but ask an important supplement to.
Finally, I think you know there is still a significant burden in Europe to rent a car in such countries, Belgium and dropping them into another, for example in the Netherlands - this is because the car must be returned to its country of origin before it can be re-employed, and costs.
Of course, one way landing charges won t be a problem if driving back to Brussels to take the train to Amsterdam - although if you did get out of the car in Germany, you can take the direct train ICE in Amsterdam Cologne 2:47.
The information on environmental stickers for German low emission zones is certainly available online, e g and - and of course, it doesn t just affect cars in Belgium, but any other country.
Oberwesel doesn t seem to be among the Rheinland-Pfalz places that need that Mainz is, and see but obviously the place to look for request more information about driving in Germany are not the TA forum for Belgium but that for Germany.
Note that Oberwesel which is located between Koblenz and Mainz, is a station, you can reach in 4 to 4 January 2 hours from Brussels Midi, the evolution of Cologne and Koblenz often, and even watch the trains for Monday, you can get the savings rate of about 50 per person so unless you aren t going to Oberwesel itself, you might as well make this trip by train and then go directly to Amsterdam from there, changing Cologne.
Driving a car in an EU country across borders is very correct we opened the border here in the EU, I had guests who arrived in Belgium rented a car there and used the car Netherlands came to visit me in Luxembourg from there to Germany and France, therefore, 5 countries, it was 2 years ago did not have any problems.
You do not need to rent a different car in all the countries you plan to visit is absurd as stickers can be purchased for entry into Switzerland or the use of the highway in Austria this is not a problem and you should not want to do things the difficult and complicated manner - to take the train in Germany and then rent there trains are expensive for a family or group of four car is real saver Especially in Germany, where trains are abnormally high.
BTW there are chances that the car you rent in Belgium will have German license plate Many car rental companies rent cars in Belgium with German license plate starting with HH stands for Hamburg Sixt, eg , have a lot full of Brussels rental car parking with German plates HH with these you'll have no problem of course, I can not guarantee a car with German license plate, but do not be surprised t have your car with a license plate from a different country.
As Europeans traveling by car, it is not uncommon for someone to drive all the way Poland to Portugal and back for vacation it is perfectly acceptable and even encouraged cars are no different.
