At the end of the summer vacations in Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt and Thuringia, the automobile club ADAC is warning of traffic jams. The last vacation weekend was the busiest in Saxony last year, said a spokesperson for the local ADAC. In addition, the weekend is still the vacation season in all federal states. Drivers should therefore be prepared for "full, if not overcrowded roads". Peak times are Friday afternoon, Saturday morning and Sunday afternoon, added a spokesperson for ADAC Hessen-Thüringen.
If you can plan freely, it is best to switch to Wednesday, Thursday or the night. Once you are stuck in a traffic jam, you should not leave, said the spokesperson in Saxony. This only causes stress, rarely saves time and clogs up the side roads. And with a view to the warmer weather forecast, the following applies: Always have enough drinks in the car.
