Comrades, I'm interested in the road Moscow - Bad Kleinkirchheim (Austria). Vignettes, insurances and the like. I have never traveled around Europe in my car.
I plan to cross the land border of Belarus and Poland on the morning of December 30. On December 31, they are waiting for me in this Austrian village. I will pass Poland, the Czech Republic, Austria. What insurance (and where) do I need to take out for my "baby" Opel Corsa and what vignettes do I need to buy?

1. Car insurance "green card" in a normal insurance company, valid from the date of entry into the EU to the date of departure. Usually it is 15 days or a month, more if necessary.
Russians do not pay for toll roads in Belarus.
In Poland, the payment for roads depends on the number of kilometers traveled on the toll road: when you enter the toll road, you get a ticket from the terminal, when you leave, return this ticket to the terminal and throw a banknote into the hole or pay with a credit card (the amount is indicated on the monitor). Payment in zloty, if cash.
In the Czech Republic, for 10 days of driving on toll roads, you need to pay 310 crowns (12 euros) in cash or by credit card. You need to buy it at the nearest gas station to the border, stick a sticker on the windshield. The same is true in Austria. It is possible that both vignettes can be bought at one point. Keep an eye on the expiration date, you also have to pay for the return trip. Read more https://autotraveler.ru/czech/. The plane is good, but the car is better! Oh, cool there, drove by in August. Good luck!

I don’t even know that there are toll roads in Belarus))).
Igor, thanks, I read the site, something is a little shocked. Really will not miss on studded tires ?? A set of spare lamps and spare fuses really check??
аватар AllOverTheWorld
hmm, I hear about studded tires for the first time, we went to Austria in a bus, everything was ok (2 years ago), we didn’t check the lamps and fuses (even I didn’t know about it), our acquaintances with tinting had the biggest ambush.
аватар ollennka
Austria, judging by the information on various sites, just allows spikes. But Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia prohibit them (((. Ambush, in short. Tires, or what, buy non-studded specials for this trip?)))
аватар ollennka
AllOverTheWorld, did you really go in winter?
аватар Igor_m
You can get to Austria on spikes, but you won’t be able to get to it - Poland, the Czech Republic are against it. It is pointless to go through Lithuania, because. Poles or Czechs can put on shoes, I would take chains, winter is still, the ski resort assumes the presence of snow.
1. Reflective vest for each passenger.
2. Fire extinguisher.
3. Two emergency stop signs.
4. Towing rope.
5. First aid kit.
6. Spare lamps (one at a time) and fuses - it's like medical insurance. Dipped beam must be on everywhere and at all times. You can buy additional lamps there without any problems, even in Bad Kleinkirchheim.
About ten years ago, the Moldovans checked the vests, they were not there, since then I have been driving. No one else was interested in anything. Berezhenogo and God saves.

ollennka100% skiing
аватар ollennka
AllOverTheWorld, of course, on skis. Excursion to Europe in winter - it's just to freeze the ass, have already passed))).
Igor_m, thanks again, it probably makes sense to buy lamps and rubber and still experience what it is like to travel in your car around Europe.
аватар ollennka
AllOverTheWorld, sorry, I did not understand the phrase)))) And what route did you drive on studded tires?
аватар AllOverTheWorld
the dipped beam is automatic, I don’t even think about it
Igor_m, you are an experienced auto-traveller
is it really all that you have listed now being checked ???
what are the spare bulbs? in the headlights? this is generally nonsense.
аватар AllOverTheWorld
ollennka, you asked exactly if you went in the winter, I wrote 100%)))
аватар AllOverTheWorld
ollennka, we personally are not on spikes, but friends from Belgorod rode on spikes, if you want, I can find out how they rode
аватар ollennka
AllOverTheWorld, yes, I want to know, please, I will be grateful. And surely no one dug into the spikes). In fact, if there is only a fine, then it's not scary, I'll pay. But if the Poles refuse entry in principle, this would not be desirable.

Guys, can you tell me by cellular communication yet? There is no roaming within the EU, as far as I know. That is, if I buy a SIM card for the Internet in Poland, will it work fine for me, including in the Czech Republic, Austria and Italy?
аватар AllOverTheWorld
ollennka, on Monday I will answer on the roads.
roaming: probably easier for us, Ukrainians, roaming in Europe without problems.
аватар ollennka
On the contrary, I want without roaming))) but oh well, I'll ask on the spot in Poland.
аватар Igor_m
AllOverTheWorld, no one checks medical insurance either, and without it it’s hard, just like without a low beam bulb, turn signal or brake light. When the dipped-beam lamp in the left headlight burns out, the car in the dark turns into a motorcycle riding along the side of the road in the eyes of an oncoming car, and when overtaking passing vehicles, both go to visit God. the side of this car when turning or changing lanes. In EU countries, the dipped beam must work day and night (a fine of 15 euros), but the point is not in punishment, but in the safety of others, and even yourself. Delirium will begin when the victim, God forbid, remains alive and will remember a penny light bulb for the rest of his life. Do you need live examples?

About spikes. The thing is good in certain conditions (solid snow, ice crust covering the asphalt). On thick ice - these are skates. If you manage to get into Poland, Slovakia on spikes, and this spike, leaving its native nest, breaks the rear windshield, and this glass will fly into the driver’s face, and the car will go into a ditch, then .... God forbid. This is also found in countries loyal to the spikes. Boys and girls, the rules of the road are written in the blood of drivers, there is nothing superfluous and crazy. Take care of yourself, life is great.

When driving on the roads of Austria, remember to keep a distance commensurate with the speed - 2 seconds from the bumper of the car you are driving behind. At a speed of 100 km / h, this is 55 meters! It has to do with spikes as well. The most "funny" - observe !!!
аватар ollennka
In most of the territory of Russia in winter, it’s dumb to drive without spikes.
Well, for Europe there will be a separate rubber, so))).
аватар ollennka
I thought it was good too. Autotour across Europe is, of course, a great adventure, but we will leave it for later. I bought a plane ticket to Salzburg. Thanks again everyone for the responses!
