No idea if they still do, I’ve only gone by the list in recent years.

They now sell this every year as the routes do get changed
but as its nearly the end of the month you do not need one ,

Thanks very much Coffee, and everyone else, none of those places mentioned sound anything like where I am going so should be OK, just one more question, how many €s should I allow for fines :question: :wink:

No map any more :frowning:
You just have to keep a note of which roads are affected, cos you can’t mark up the roads on a sat-nav, can you?
Also, as Brit Pete said, they now move the goal posts every year, which would mean a new map every year.
Unfortunately they don’t even do a map on a web page, they just do a slightly different list every year. :frowning:

Sunday trucks driving bans lift up at 22:00 but I have seen fair of numbers German & some foreign lorries set off about half eight or around nine? is that okay? police gonna turn blind eyes?

Also seen some foreign lorries enter to Germany borders from Belgium (Litchenbusch E40) on Sunday afternoon, they dont stop there, there has some parking space on borders area! they just carry on driving reach to Aachen service area! is that illegal or what?

Last day of the ban tomorrow for this year.

As a very rough guide for future reference it is mainly the north south routes that are subject to the Saturday holiday ban. The east west routes are generally ok.

The reason for the ban is to enable the unwashed hordes in their bloody caravans to sweep through the Fatherland unhindered by nasty lorries on their way to their chosen holiday ghettoes.

Hi Betz,

The Saturday ban is a completely different ban to the Sunday ban. :smiley:
