New sign causes confusion: parking or numbers? These are the rules!

The introduction of a new traffic sign causes excitement and confusion among drivers! The sign known as the "charging area", which the Federal Government introduced in 2024, should actually make it easier to unload and unload. But if you park too long, you have to pay a fine of up to 50 euros, as Berlin reported live. The traffic sign 230, which initially sounds like a secret, looks like a parking sign, but has a different function: it is intended to support commercial delivery traffic. Private drivers, for example when unloading purchases or vacation luggage, can also use this sign - but only for a short time!

stricter regulations, high punishments

But the catch is that drivers are not allowed to park. If you stay for more than an hour, you even have to pay 40 euros, and for abuse of the loading area, punishments of up to 50 euros threaten. The anger of the citizens is great: While some are scolding the high punishments, others spoke up to ask whether the sign is really intended to relieve the traffic or simply represents a new means of rip -off. Users express their displeasure on Instagram and speak of a "two-class society" through these regulations.

But that's not all! According to the Bussmeldkatalog.org, the confusion of the various traffic signs that regulate the holding and parking also brings many drivers into the bredouille. Parking in certain zones marked by signs can cost more than many think. Many shuttles and private parking spaces are only accessible to certain users, which makes it difficult to search for a suitable parking space in urban areas. Parking wrongly can quickly lead to a contractual penalty.
