Hi, I didn’t find any other area. Hope the question goes in here as I want to be safe in Switzerland. *g So I’m going to Switzerland soon. *joy Is there something special to consider? Toll is clear. City 50km/h Country 80km/h Highway 120km/h 25L Canister Sprit duty-free 1L alcohol 1 rod Cigarettes 0.5kg meat 1kg butter are duty-free Mountain descents have to drive back in case of oncoming traffic. We have a dog with us (vaccination + chip are available) and will use a car train (Lötschbergtunnel). Sprit is about 20 cents cheaper there than in D, isn’t it? Warnwesten? Second sighting aid? So what should you pay attention to in Switzerland? Greeting Joker

Exact definition of pushers
Hi It is talked about as often as hard one is punished if one pushes on the BAB and one does not do it solte but what exactly belongs to pushing? Is this just the dense drive up or does light horn and lefter turn signal also belong, even if one stops the stand off? I come to it because I have been on the highway very often lately and have often used the light horn to signal to the frontman that I am faster than he and wants to pass, hold off I don’t see any personal danger and have no problem with it if it’s a more motorized car with me. If someone drives after me at 200 km/h, over 100m, I wouldn’t think that he wants to overtake me and cut me out of free, I wouldn’t switch to the middle lane at such a high speed (would be a constant back and forth). Only what would the police say if that was withkiregt or m. Is this by mistake in the case of civil strife (I think the worst bad luck ever ^^)?

Day together! atm everyone is driving around with these fähnchen at the car. find this overall very cool, however I wonder, until how much km/h the dinger also stay on the autobahn at their place? have no flag, but ordered me red-white, for the next season in the 2nd league! 😎 and I do not want the dinger to stay on the way to Ölln on the A3. has already lost one of his flag here? if yes, at what speed? if no, how fast se Id you were? best regards andy ESSEN 2. LIGA! Yes watt then? Yes watt then? Yes watt then, watt then, watt then?

Eurovan air pressure
MNit what air pressure do you drive with your Eurovan? I drive with 2.4 bar in front and 2.4 bar in the back. So 2.2 bar + 0.2 bar. Is this optimal? Can you enter 3 bar in the back, if the “case room” is not loaded? Is that true that you should give 0.2 bar pressure more? Why? What pressure do you drive? Does this happen to the tires? I have Michelin Pilot Primacy in the dimension 215/65 R15 H on it. How important is the tire pressure in the first place? What happens? t if you drive with too much/too little air pressure? Premium tires can’t normally burst, can they? They’re tested? (i.e. Michelin, Conti, Pirelli, Goodyear…)? That’s only available at “no name”, isn’t it? Thanks for your reply mfg franz

Overtaking ban for trucks
With us on the BAB 12 there is a recently overtaking ban for trucks. Reason: In recent years there have been again serious accidents with a fatal outcome. In most cases there have been collisions at the end of the traffic jam in front of the border towards Poland. Despite extremely high traffic security measures by the police and extra warning signs, there has been another serious accident last week, with a fatal outcome. Cars without brakes in trucks at the end of the traffic jam. At the moment it looks like this, the slowest truck drives in front and the other 20-30 trucks follow with toothbrush length. The front brakes, falls asleep or visits the green next to the train, already we have the shearing. Accident with three – four trucks. Follow traffic chaos. The overcrowding ban has not changed anything so far, unfortunately. At this link: http://www.grund-los.de/ are pictures of just these accidents set. I believe speaking for myself.

Lifeline at traffic lights
I noticed this again today… I was driving after an RTW on the city ring for minutes, although I had to fight with the traffic lights quite normally… I noticed that the RTW always stuck at the traffic jams, because the people at the front e.g. don’t notice that a RTW wants to go through the back and therefore don’t drive them into the intersection to make room. And the rear don’t know where to go… Then I had to go to the rescue lane b In the motorway traffic jam I thought and then came up with the following idea: At large, traffic-pregnant intersections without bus/taxi tracks in the city, another “track” with restricted area marking can be created on the main traffic routes, where constantly long traffic light traffic jams form, in the area of the “distribution lanes”. Since this is not possible everywhere, it is clear. On the one hand, the tracks must still be wide enough after the measure – but according to my experience this is often feasible. I think that only a width of 1.50 m would be enough to form an appropriate rescue lane. Moreover, the best closed areas do not work if the traffic jam goes beyond these. So they would have to be created individually because of the location. Furthermore, the abuse of these tracks must of course be highly punished. Who knows, maybe there are such traces already somewhere in Germany, where I have never been before. In this case, please consider this post as g Egenstandslos But I’ve been around a little bit and I’ve never seen anything like it. And if somewhere on the same topic a thread from 2001 is already in the sink, then let’s take care of it…

Is that really more fuel-saving?
I know the question has nothing to do with safety, but since it is supposed to be general and independent of the manufacturer, I put it here. For the current occasion, I have again dealt with the topic of fuel saving. In addition to the already known and easily understandable tips, this one also came to me under: “Accelerate with a lot of gas – then the throttle valve is wide open, and the engine can breathe freely and sparingly – and switch up as early as possible. n 2000 revolutions put in the higher gear and kick heavily on the accelerator pedal, saves the most. Who brings the engine with little gas on high speeds, fires the money out to the exhaust.” Now my question: Is it really petrol-saving, undertouring to give full gas, instead of coming with little gas into slightly higher speed ranges? Maybe it’s up to me, but I actually have the feeling (and the consumption indicator confirms that) that I consume more fuel when I use low-speed petrol. At least at the moment you almost step into the void (an average motorized petrol engine is set up) because the idea “less gas would have been enough” and the lay-like assessment “more gas=more fuel consumption”. If, for example, I want to overtake the motorway in the 5th gear and push the accelerator properly, the anzeze often more than if I switch back to the 4th and then can accelerate much better. Is this only because the on-board computer assumes that I will drive the next 100 km like this? Or is this fuel saving wisdom really nonsense? I would also be interested in whether you can actually drive all new engines underboard without any problems, and then should also give full throttle. Does for vehicles without e-gas actually still apply only 3/4 gas because of the fatter Gemis Chs?

Left-wing accident
As in the insurance forum, here is the story of my first accident. So now it has happened. After almost 3 years I have come into the bad situation. I drive a straight road with good insight to all sides (especially forward) and want to turn left into a parking lot. From a distance I see another guide driving suspiciously slowly (not faster 10 km/h) and a driver of stubbornly to the right (so to his driving banner or footpath) looking t. He looks in my opinion at the entrance (to a house) which is about 1 meter before my desired entrance to the parking lot. If he wants to drive in there, we would not hinder each other or disturb each other. Since I have been rolling blinking for some time and he is getting slower, so I think (unfortunately wrongly) that he wants to bend in there and drive himself slowly into my entrance. My rear wheels were just at the height of the edge of the boron, as the In my opinion, he was not able to avoid it at all. In my opinion, he would have to get a debt, because he did not have it all the time to look at the road. That I am ultimately to blame, is not a question for me and I accept that too. Therefore, it would be If you hold back from me in your contributions with blame assignments. I know myself that I should have waited! But you can expect a little more attention from other road users as well. Because at exactly the same place a child was threatened only a few days ago. Schud has a driver who looked dreamily into the surroundings. Apparently there must be something interesting about the high-rise, that something like this at this place often pass Rt. How would you assess the situation or act in my position?

I filed a complaint today.
Today such a *** forced me to complete the braking with intent. I was on the left on a two-lane road in Cologne, while it was stumbling on the right. 200 meters further the road became one-lane. So I had the intention to classify myself at the end of the left lane via zipper, as the legislator also provides. But the ***, which was on the right, probably did not fit and he pulled about 2-3 car lengths in front of me without warning on my track and has me to a full brake was forced. I got 0.5-1 meters behind him honking to stand, whereupon he only gesticulated wildly and then grinned stupidly through the mirror. He then stopped me to the end of the left, 2nd track from driving past him by driving exactly between the two tracks. So I then threaded 2-3 cars further behind him. At the next intersection he was then right in front of me again and started to fry around with his hands again, unfortunately there was no After that he gave the right rubber and ran through the city at well over 80km/h, until he was stopped in a tunnel by a Dutchman, who drove at less than 50km/h. Then he drove very close, gave him the light horn several times and then overtaken him despite overtaking and oncoming traffic, which also had to brake and evade. The police recorded the message from me this evening (mark and vehicle). yp I wrote them down), but said that a coercion would not be detectable, because I could not call any witnesses and because he could also have “accidentally” switched to my track. So they only wrote an OWi ad because of the lane change and the thereby necessary full braking on my part and the push and overtaking in case of overtaking with overtaking with danger of the oncoming traffic. But the latter probably falls away, if none of the other harmed ones reports. clear that he can talk out of it very easily, because I could not clearly identify the driver, but now I feel a little better. Maybe he has already noticed because of such behavior or is still noticeable in the future. Then he can run for a few months.

Flying fists in traffic jam
20. October 2005 HILFSEINSATZ IN SCHNEECHAOS Flying fists in traffic jam When nothing is going on in winter and thousands of motorists are stuck on the motorway, then the rescue services move out with hot drinks and blankets. SPIEGEL ONLINE: Mr. Leitner, what traffic jam was the worst in your career as a Red Cross helper? Leitner: That was a traffic jam on the A8 motorway here in Bavaria, to the border towards Salzburg, the night from 3 to 4 February 2005. Nothing more, on a length of 30 kilometers, the cars got stuck because of the heavy snowfall. It stormed like at the North Pole. … SPIEGEL ONLINE: As a motorist, you never see the start of the traffic jam in which you stand. Tell us: Is there a start? And who is there? Leitner: In winter, these are mostly trucks from southern countries that run through with summer tires and stay stuck on the first snowy slope and cross each other. The cars behind it can still be so well equipped with winter tires and snow chains, that doesn’t help at all. SPIEGEL ONLINE: They are certainly in a good mood when a truck from Italy is standing in front of them… Leitner: The nerves are quickly blank. The ones in the back, they are ignorant, they don’t know what’s going on at all. But the very front, they see the culprit. There are already hand-wrapped arguments. That’s why the highway police are fast. The THW then tries to drag the trucks up the slope. And that often takes a lot of hours. … Addendum from me: While the THW in the front of the truck is unloading the left-over trucks, the crazy truck drivers are driving towards all tracks in the back and are also hanging (even seen on the Bayern TV) (the responsible THW man was about to lynch the truck drivers … Request from me: The police should not let the truck drivers in front of the angry car driver they protect, but prevent them in advance – preventively – from blocking the motorways in the snow – then there is no trouble with car drivers who are on the road in winter with winter tires
