When traffic comes to a standstill, German drivers instantly shift left and right to create a Rettungsgasse, an emergency corridor so ambulances and firefighters can fly through at full speed (cdn.imgchest.com)

Okay but what if I have to take a major shit, is it cool if I skip ahead to the next exit? I get that the idea is everyone is making it safer on the off chance an emergency vehicle needs to go by, but we got this wide open strip, so if someone has a (minor) emergency, are they a jerk for taking advantage of it to get off the road, or...?

No, you will be fined upwards of 240€, lose your license for a month, and get 2 points on your license (8 points means you lose it permanently, you will have to redo the license and take a so-called "idiot-test" beforehand).

Great news, theres a ditch right beside where you stopped, and you said it was an emergency.

I watched a woman get out of her car during a traffic jam (on a packed freeway) drop trou and just piss in the road right in front of me. Didn't try to hide to one side or open the doors to block the sightline. Just busted piss in the absolute middle of the road.

Either she was mad out of fucks or she took a dare. Didnt even wipe. Just hiked her pants up and got back in the car.

🤷

Nyo its not cool and in highways accidents, the ambulances will usually be followed by police and you will get pulled over and fined.
