In Berlin, it will be compulsory to wear a mask in the car.

Excluded are the driver and, when driving in a private car, members of the household.

The Senate decided on Tuesday, as the Governing Mayor, Michael Müller (SPD) announced on Tuesday after the Senate meeting.

A medical mask is compulsory, just like when shopping and when using public transport.

The new rules also affect gatherings in the form of a car parade and should come into effect in the coming days.

The current infection protection ordinance will be adapted accordingly.

Müller said the regulation had to be sharpened at this point.

The number of infections in Berlin is declining.

"We are on the right path.

But we want to stick with it, we don't get cocky. "
