Driving Tips for Hamburg
With these German driving tips, exploring Hamburg will be a breeze:
- Hazard lights: If you happen to approach a traffic jam in your rental car in Hamburg, you should turn on your hazard lights.
- Speed limits: The speed limit within the city limits of Hamburg is 50 km/hr (31 mph). Once you drive past city borders, the speed limit increases to 100 km/hr (60 mph). Highways and the famous German autobahns have a recommended speed limit of 130 km/hr (80 mph).
- Parking: To find parking in Hamburg, look for blue and white P signs. Enter where it says "Einfahrt," and exit where it says "Ausfahrt." The hourly parking rate near the city center can range from free to a few euros per hour.
- Pay for gas inside: When you stop at a gas station to fill your SIXT car rental with fuel, you will most likely have to pay inside the gas station. "Pay at the pump" services are rare in Hamburg.
