  • When to blink on acceleration strips left?

    Good evening! I have a question that has occupied me for a long time… In the driving school I learned the following about driving up the motorway: As soon as I find myself on the acceleration strip and start the dashed road marking, set blinker on the left – regardless of whether now one comes from behind and I could not change the track because of it or because I am still too slow. And then keep driving with blinker until a gap comes and I even the examiner didn’t complain about this during the test. I personally appreciate this procedure but critically. If I drive on the right lane and there arrives one on the acceleration track and immediately starts to blink left, then I think first of all: oh, he pulls over immediately (unfortunately I have to experience that already)… How do you see this? First blink when you have found a gap? That you might like to drive up to the highway. te, would be clear on the spot even without blinking

  • Non-shiftable ride – highway with detour or highway?

    I have to make a non-shiftable journey (Würzburg – Aschaffenburg). I want to arrive as safely as possible. The shortest way leads via the A3, but over approx. 12 km Zubringer Landstraße. I wonder if I should rather drive a detour and take another connecting point. Background to my consideration is that the highway will probably still be in the best condition. I would be pleased about short-term estimates, which option in the current weather conditions The car is a C 220 CDI with good winter tires, but of course rear drive. Moralizing indications that every ride is foregone are not of interest to me. I would appreciate a concrete assessment. I am aware that we do not have an optimal solution. Thank you for all the useful answers. Greeting Michael

  • Armasking rescue service/police from a neighboring city impossible?

    My father-in-law died of a heart attack, and I was only able to contact the rescue service from the neighboring city through time-consuming telephone searches. Unfortunately, too late, so he died agonizingly. Now the question arises. What is on the highway if I want to contact the rescue service with my mobile phone? Is the network in which I am responsible for this emergency? Or is it like on the landline that I want to wash off The following happened to me in the fixed network: Quote Tread: Quote: My wife did not know the emergency number in panic when my father-in-law’s heart attack (unfortunately passed away at the time). In panic she called me in the office (neighbouring town). I, automatically 112!. Unfortunately with moderate success. Response of the emergency control center: the emergency is in Dortmund? You are here in Essen. There must be an emergency. They already call right there!! So, call at the information, and quickly get a phone number of the fire department in Dortmund. Call at the fire department Dortmund. Doorman instructs me. If you need the rescue service, you have to choose the 112! After for me infinitely long lasting explanations (I in Essen, emergency in Dortmund), have finally put me through to the rescue department. Result. When I arrived, the police was on site, and waited for the Kripo for the death trap ung. Die in Germany Accident victims, because there is no competent rescue center!???? Greetings, Günther.

  • Driver’s license lost/stole – how to proceed?

    Hello guys, I have a problem… since the last disco visit in 70km away Munich my driver’s license is gone! I guess he was stolen from my jacket – in which he was and which unfortunately lay around a few times unattended. How should I proceed now? I googled and find various statements. Once I have to report to the police immediately and the loss/theft. Then I have to apply for a new driver’s license and can apply for a replacement driver’s license. I would also like to… if it is found or delivered somewhere. Only what if I am checked? Then 10 or 15€ are due and I have to show my driver’s license within a week!? How do I best proceed now? Report theft and have a replacement driver’s license issued first? Or is it enough if I only report theft and a certificate from this company? Do you have any experience with the cost of all this? Thank you very much!

  • IT security awareness of drivers

    Hello, I hope it fits in here…. I have come across an interesting topic: that viruses and co. represent a threat for every PC in the net is / should now be known to everyone. But what does this actually look like with the car? Meanwhile in principle also with the car all prerequisites are met: Describeable memory, BUS networking, networking with Internet etc. That with the help of fake/manipulated messages quite component behavior can be changed rides shown, e.g. by: – http://omen.cs.uni-magdeburg.de/automotiv/cms/upload/SecViolation.pdf or – www.autosec.org/pubs/cars-oakland2010.pdf There is now an online survey and who likes to participate. link removed – twistance/MT-moderation The evaluation results are then posted in this Threat (evaluation ca. January 2013).Thank you for all who take part! Greetings Stadtkind

  • High fines for severance in the ZUB I

    The reason for this is that in the German vehicle documents (ZUB I and ZUB II ) there is a line behind the identification mark. Supposedly up to 500 euros the penalties should amount.Every driver who plans to drive to Austria or Italy should first report to his registration office and have a new vehicle certificate ( ZUB I ) issued without a line. If possible, it has already been approved by the rapid procedure and will probably occur in the near future. The cut-off line will be deleted in general. Kling good = the line will be deleted I would like to use this hint to protect and warn those who still have the cut-off line in the ZUIB I and plan a trip to the countries shortly bwz. http://en.autoblog.com/…/ Schönes WE

  • On the subject of road safety and the environment!

    Here are my proposals for more safety in road traffic and environmental protection. Flensburger points system abolish. Mobile phone ban when driving. Alcohol in road traffic: 0.0 promille. Main investigation (HU): first after 3 years then every 12 months. Environmental zones in all cities with more than 50,000 inhabitants introduce, (only green plaques). Significantly more money in the expansion of public transport invest, than in road traffic. Tempo limits for climate protection u nd traffic safety. – Innerots: 40 km/h. – Out of town: 80 km/h. – Highway: 120 km/h. Speed crossings Inner city AND Out of town. – up to 10 km/h = 120 € – 11-20 km/h = 250 € – 21-30 km/h = 350 € – 31-40 km/h = 480 € + 3 months driving ban. – over 41 km/h = at least 600 € / income dependant. + 6 months driving ban.

  • Aggressive brand-dependent / Survey ADAC

    I have just read the survey on aggressive behaviour in road traffic on the side of the ADAC and am a little surprised. “Especially due to tight driving and pushing, the respondents noticed BMW (50.6 percent), Mercedes (32.2 percent), Audi (25.9 percent) and Porsche (8.7%). This is shown by a representative survey of the ADAC motor world. Many road users also conclude from the car colour to the driving behaviour. 9.7 percent still have this assessment on silver vehicles.” One could argue now that BMW, Merc, Audi and Porsche are building the fastest cars… . Has the marketing of sportiness at BMW gone through this way? The registration numbers are about the same with all of them. Interestingly, I would have distributed places 1 to 4 in exactly the same order in the survey.

  • Hit-and-run?

    Hello, was just with dogs gassi, then I saw the parking of a pensioner. Well… he just had to drive in backwards. There was only a VW and Renter drove a Opel. Well…Rentner drives backwards and “pushes” the VW…. VW was probably hit more at the license plate. I was at the height of both weighings than I saw that, on the other side of the road. Pensioner got out, looked fleetingly after his car and left. I then returned. Visually nothing was visible at the VW. I went my way. e gassi round on. When I went back, the Opel was gone. There was no note on the VW. I noted both car numbers and time in the mobile phone. Should I forget it? Or should I report it to the police for a moment? I’m really unreliable…..war only the typical door in the parking lot….but so could for example a bracket in the inside be broken and spare parts at VW are known to be not cheap…. Your opinions on this? Thank you, Jürgen
