Chapter overview
This chapter contains helpful tips for the journey.
At the end of the chapter there is a checklist containing the most important
equipment for the journey.
15.1 Traffic rules in foreign countries

The vehicle driver is required to inform himself as to the traffic rules of
the countries in which he plans to travel before beginning the trip.
Contact your automobile club or embassy for further information.

In some European countries, warning vests must be worn when exiting
the vehicle outside of towns in the case of vehicle failures or accidents.

Depending on the country, different rules and regulations apply (e.g. dif-
ferent warning signs for rear carriers, obligation to carry breathalyzer
kits, spare bulbs, high-visibility vests, size of reserve canister). The
driver of the vehicle must familiarise him or herself with these rules be-
fore every journey.

Up-to-date information can generally be found on the web pages of the
national automobile associations.
Information about traffic regulations is especially important as state law ap-
plies in case of damage. For your own safety, always observe the following
rules when travelling abroad:

Carry your insurance certificate with you.

Always register accidents with the police.

Never sign documents that you have not read and understood com-
pletely.
15.2 Help on Europe's roads

Before commencing the trip, gather information on national phone num-
bers for rescue and police. In many countries the central emergency
phone number 112 (without area code) applies.

As far as possible, draw up a list with the important phone numbers in
the travelled countries and keep the table in the vehicle.
Motoring clubs at home or in the travelled country are happy to help.
