Tariffs - ADAC: Rail strike comes at an inopportune time: working from home
In view of the announced train drivers' warning strike, the ADAC recommends that employees work from home on Friday if possible. "Anyone who has the opportunity to work from home should make use of it," an ADAC spokesperson told the German Press Agency on Thursday. "Because you can't rely on the train as an alternative," he said, also referring to difficult weather conditions. There is a possibility of freezing rain and it will definitely be slippery on Friday. "The rail strike is actually coming at an inopportune time."
The ADAC expects the roads to be fuller because the trains are not running. "That means, of course, you have to plan more time if you have to leave." MV normally suffers less from traffic jams than other federal states. Nevertheless, it will probably be more crowded in cities such as Rostock and Schwerin.
The spokesman appealed to drivers to check whether their cars are safe for winter: "How are the tires, do they have enough tread? Is the windshield wiper water really frost-proof? You don't want to clean the windows and then have a nice layer of ice on your car." You should drive carefully and prudently.
