[QUOTE="RBEmerson, post: 1409986, member: 91458"] Too bad about the bike rental. FWIW some of the mountain roads are scary narrow, making a bike an attractive idea. To say nothing of the passes. Switzerland isn't all mountains. The "flat" parts are interesting, too. Two traffic words of wisdom, pay attention to the (IMHO silly) speeds. Be sure whatever vehicle you has a Swiss autobahn sticker. AFAIK they're no likely to pull someone over for not having one. But if they nail you for something else, no sticker is an added bonus. For them. Stickers aren't cheap (€38). You can only buy a year's pass. Austria also has an autobahn sticker but you can get one that's good for 10 days and doesn't cost much. Germany doesn't have stickers (political death to propose it). Italy does, but only for a few autostrada further south than South Tirol. Stickers can be found on either side of boarders at gas stations or in German ADAC offices (think German AAA). [/QUOTE]
