Car rental insurance can be tricky to navigate and often isn't what you expect, by booking with us direct you'll receive the correct insurance for your rental.
When you collect your vehicle
Plan ahead. We recommend planning your route before you leave, especially when renting a car at an airport. Are you sure where you're meeting your chaperone or where the rental desk is? Your confirmation email will have the contact information for the location, so we suggest saving the number in your phone ahead of time.
Have the correct documents ready. We try and keep the check in process as painless as possible but we do need to process certain information for legal reasons so having these ready ahead of time can help speed up the process. Make sure you have your booking details ready, along with your driving licence, passport and valid credit card.
Complete a vehicle check. It's essential when you are taken to your car you complete a Vehicle Condition Report (VCR) and note any existing damage, paying particular attention to the five damage hotspots. If you don't report this, you may be liable for these damages when you return the vehicle. We don't want you to get caught out, so we've put together a handy vehicle inspection video to help you check everything thoroughly.
While you rent
Take care. Unfortunately you may be liable for any damage caused to a vehicle in your care, and this will vary depending on the product you choose. A large proportion of damages to any car can be dings you pick up in car parks, so be mindful when space is limited and park further away and walk a little further to your destination.
When you return your vehicle
Complete a vehicle check. It's time to carry out a VCR again and even more essential to fully log any damage, no matter how small, to ensure you are fully covered and we can process your return effectively. Be sure to check the vehicle as before, paying special attention to the five damage hotspots.

For those driving in Germany for the first time, it's essential to get comfortable with your rental car and familiarize yourself with local traffic laws – although driving in Germany is pretty straight-forward and easy.
Driving on the right is the norm, and a valid driver's license from your home country, along with an International Driving Permit, may be required.
The speed limits in Germany are generally 50 km/h in urban areas, 100 km/h on secondary roads, and on the Autobahn (highways), while there is no general speed limit, it is recommended to drive at speeds not exceeding 130 km/h.
Stuttgart's roads are dotted with fuel stations, ensuring convenience for long drives. While Germany does not have a general network of toll roads, some tunnels and bridges may have tolls, so be prepared for occasional toll fees.
If you need help while in Stuttgart or elsewhere in Germany, don't hesitate to contact our office. In an emergency, the national emergency number is 112.

Can I drive a rented car from Stuttgart to other parts of Germany?
Yes, you can drive across the country. Please let us know your travel plans before-hand!
Are there any specific driving rules I should be aware of in Germany?
Yes! Stopping, parking, or reversing on the Autobahn is strictly prohibited. The legal blood alcohol limit is 0.05%, but for new drivers (less than two years of experience) and drivers under 21, the limit is 0.00%. Winter tires are required in wintry conditions. Some cities have low-emission zones requiring vehicles to display an emissions sticker (Umweltplakette). Check the requirements for the areas you plan to visit. Vehicles must stop for pedestrians at crosswalks without traffic lights.
Do I need a car in Stuttgart?
Stuttgart has a great public transportation system, but it's better to rent a car for a part of the trip when you want to go out into the countryside, or travel without depending on the schedules of public transportation!
Are there tolls in Germany?
Germany does not have a nationwide motorway toll system for passenger cars. However, all roads are not free. Toll charges can be settled automatically using the on-board unit (OBU) of the operator Toll Collect, over the Internet, with the DKV CARD at the toll terminal, or directly via the DKV BOX EUROPE. It's better to check the toll situation before-hand!
