7Don’t run out of gas
There is no specific law in Germany against an empty tank, but against unnecessary stops, and this law was written for fools who are driving without adequate fuel.
The police imposed fines in this case, since it is assumed that there is a personal fault here. Finally, one could have avoided the reasons for holding it.
So you pay a fine of 30 € for wrong holding and parking on a highway or motor road is usually punished with a fine of 70 €.
If an accident occurs as a result of the vehicle being left behind, then there may be further consequences besides the fines.
