Straßenverkehrsordnung

The Straßenverkehrsordnung (StVO) is Germany's Road Traffic Regulations, outlining rules for safe and orderly vehicular and pedestrian movement. It covers speed limits, right of way, signaling, parking, and conduct at intersections, ensuring traffic flows smoothly and safely. The StVO also specifies behaviors in special situations and includes signage and markings to inform drivers and pedestrians. Compliance is enforced by authorities, and violations can result in fines or penalties. Overall, it promotes road safety and responsible participation in traffic for all users.
