Europe is opening again after the spring shutdown. Swedes can travel to a number of countries and Denmark and Germany have opened for transit trips.

Although much is not as usual yet. Anyone who goes abroad with the car and gets into trouble must be prepared for it to become plump due to the corona crisis.

- It can be workshops that have shorter opening hours, repair times can be longer and it can be more difficult to get a rental car, says Cecilia Billhammar, manager at SOS International's foreign department.

More difficult with the accommodation

If you are forced to stay somewhere for a few days due to car jams, it can also be difficult to find accommodation.

- It's not the same range as previous summers.

And for those who quickly have to go home if something has happened, it can be difficult to get hold of a plane ticket.

Serve the car

Cecilia Billhammar gives two advice to anyone who takes the car abroad this summer.

- You should really make sure to service the car before. Then you should also check what insurance you have on the car so that you are prepared. You should like to have full insurance if you crash, says Cecilia Billhammar.
