sadly not enforced in my experience, you spent half the year with some a*hole in a BMW up your exhaust pipe at 200kph and then when it snows he's sideways on the road or skidding along at 10kph and being a total a*hole won't get out of your way :twisted:

Thank you every much guys. Um yeah now would be the time to ask How is the weather? We are focusing on tooling around. Berlin, Munich, down to Mayrhofen and across to Salzburg and really any where else I feel like driving. Is it going to be snowy? (realizes the full extent of asking such an idiosyncratic question willst in the Alps. Avis was fully and completely asinine. I have now checked on the hole 8-9 different companies ranging from the ones at the airport, and local companies and for a automatic it's just insane. The cheapest I found was roughly 530$ USD. Dude my plane ticket was only 100$ USD more. So I'm going to find a friend in the near future who can help me and my sis drive a stick. I'm only planning on going to one resort (
*insert obvious glacier*) and I'm planning on skiing, unless of course the need arises. If I work my money right I may stop at Neidrau

Tino, I just can't seem to stop laughing *high fives* I give it a 10.
Uh oh, I think I broke'd the lift
