* Germany - City deliveries in Hamburg

* Germany - Navigating the ‘chaos’ of Hamburg in a big rig

Hamburg,Germany -Fleet Owner, by Brian Straight -Aug. 27, 2013: ... What also struck me was the number of commercial trucks that had to work their way through this traffic, the pedestrians, the bicyclists, the double parked cars. Perhaps people here understand the traffic patterns – they sure seem to – but to an outsider, it looked like chaos at times, including one incident where we witnessed a car come down a narrow street wide enough for only one vehicle at a time due the vehicles parked on either side, reach the end of the road at a three-way intersection of sorts, make a u-turn, and travel back down the same road from which it just came, followed closely by a mother on a bike and her young child, also on a bike, close behind... And yet German truck drivers, just like their American counterparts, must make the deliveries. And they do this throughout this “chaos” that is downtown Hamburg... What I realized is that if I had to make city deliveries in Hamburg, I would be moving to America...
