Another unwritten rule:
If you see a taxi, stay behind and match your speed, do not pass it. They usually know where the speed traps are...

I have held a full uk driving license for 20 years and never driven in Germany. I would recommend that any tourist planning to drive in Germany for the first complete a free online theory test to familiarise themselves with the road signage and understand a few key differences when driving in Germany including the right before left scenario and other situations which does not exist in the British Highway Code.

I lived in Germany for 16 years and you did a very good job on this driving lesson. Thanks for sharing with us and I look forward to watching more of your videos.

Thanks ! Very helpful video . Two questions :
1.
Can you please make video of you taking a left turn ? Who needs to go and who needs to wait ?
2.
How do we know the speed limit of each road ? Are there signs kept at the side of the road. ?

Well done, Jen! Oh, I can definitely see your future as a driving instructor. :-D

You forgot to mention that you can't overtake right and that need to use your indicator on all lane changes 🙂

Trick 17 um sich nicht vor Blitzern zu erschrecken: Einfach an die Geschwindigkeitsbegrenzungen halten ;)

Ahhh, so cool, its my hometown, ....I was every sunday at the Aachener Platz for the „Trödelmarkt“ when I was younger. I grow up in Bilk. Now I live 250km away from Düsseldorf🥺.
Thanks for bringing back all the memories of my childhood 😃.

Really good video. I've driving on the autobahn alway the way from the London. Germany has the best road's. Did 120mph on the way to Stuttgart no Sat no Map. Lol.

There is a bit of North/South and East/West with the Autobahn: Their numbering. Even numbers are predominantly east/west, whereas odd numbers are north/south.

WOW! Just found your channel. Very nice. I haven't looked at the rest of your content, but a few ideas just in case. Parking signs are most confusing for me as are right of way signs for intersections with non working lights. Part of your drive looked familiar. I learned a bunch! Thanks!

Funny story. I was driving my mother home and went through a light as it turned red. The camera took my picture. My mother saids oops I forgot to tell you about that camera. This was before they were digital. The next day or so my mother was reading the Hanauer Anzeiger and laughed. She said a camera was stolen. I never got a ticket. I thanked that unknown person. Lol

Don't go over the speed limit and you're safe. Watch for the signs.
