Fast charging from 150 kW and power classes
Longest stretch without a charging site of 150 kW or more: from Itzehoe-Mitte junction to Anschluss B5, about 46 km (schematic).
By power: under 50 kW: 8 · 50 to 149 kW: 5 · 150 kW and up: 12.
Our count of the sites above (within the distance named from a junction or service area) – whether one is free, the list says.

Lorry driving ban
On Sundays and public holidays, lorries over 7.5 t and lorries with trailers may not drive between 00:00 and 22:00. (§ 30 Abs. 3 StVO)
Next ban day: Sunday 18 October.
The motorway's states by the nearest municipality of each junction. Holidays per § 30 Abs. 4 StVO, reviewed 8 October 2026 · Informational, not legal advice.
- On the Autobahn there is no general speed limit where no sign says otherwise; the advisory speed is 130 km/h. Drive faster and you can share liability in a crash. (Autobahn-Richtgeschwindigkeits-V)
- Rescue lane: as soon as traffic slows on a motorway or rural road with at least two lanes per direction, keep a lane free between the leftmost lane and the one beside it — immediately, not once the blue lights arrive. (§ 11 Abs. 2 StVO)
- 112 reaches ambulance and fire service (Europe-wide), 110 the police — free from any network, credit or not. (Notrufverordnung (NotrufV))
