Driving Requirements and Rules

An Umweltplakette (environmental sticker) is required for most central streets. This is a green sticker that you order online and place on your windshield.
City speed limit is 50 km/h (31 mph) and often 30 km/h (18 mph) near schools. Fixed cameras enforce speed limits.
On the Autobahn the recommended top speed is 130 km/h (81 mph) when no limit is posted.
Vehicles up to 3.5 tonnes pay no road toll in Germany. Heavier vehicles must use a toll box.
Metered city parking usually allows only 2–3 hours. Look for blue "P Wohnmobil" signs for legal overnight parking spots.
Fuel stations on motorways run 24 hours and accept cards. Many city fuel stations close at 22:00.
Hamburg has heavy bike traffic. Give way when crossing red bike lanes that run between the road and sidewalk.

Important Tips for International Visitors

Dial 112 for medical or fire emergency and 110 for police.
North Sea storms can create winds above 80 km/h (50 mph). Pull in awnings and avoid high bridges during storms.
Hamburg bans older diesel vehicles on some central streets. Check if your rental vehicle meets emission standards for city driving.
Most shops close on Sundays, so buy food and fuel by Saturday evening.
In December Christmas markets fill parking areas by 11:00. Use park-and-ride lots at train stations instead.
Many parking machines require coins and do not accept card payments under €10.
