Summer Holidays Begin in Germany: ADAC Warns of Traffic Jams

As the summer holidays kick off in Baden-Württemberg and Bavaria this weekend, all German states enter vacation mode. The ADAC anticipates that the roads will be congested as many families travel for their holidays. Drivers are advised to exercise caution, particularly on highways and near popular tourist destinations, and to be aware of traffic hotspots that have been problematic in the past.

Traffic conditions may worsen especially during early morning hours and late afternoons. Motorists should allow ample time for their journeys and consider alternative routes to avoid congestion. The ADAC also recommends taking regular breaks during drives to ensure the safety of all passengers.
