Speed Limits

Unlike the limitless autobahn, city driving in Germany, including Freiburg, imposes a general speed limit of 50 km/h - certainly a upbeat change from the UK's 30 mph. Remember, when driving in residential areas during the day, you need to adhere to closely to the 30 km/h limit.

Traffic Rules

When navigating roundabouts, traffic coming from your left has priority - a subtle yet crucial difference compared to the United Kingdom. If you spot the 'priority over oncoming vehicles' sign - a yellow diamond on a white background - it means you have right of way.

Parking

Ensure your vehicle is parked in the direction of traffic flow. Also, keep an eye out for ‘Taxi’ or ‘Anwohnerparken’ spaces, designated for taxis or residents respectively. Illegal parking can result in a spot fine
