What should I keep with me in the car so that I don’t get a fine at the police check? Does a fluorescent vest count, and what should I pay particular attention to when traveling abroad?

In Switzerland, in addition to the driver’s license and the vehicle registration certificate (and the emission certificate for vehicles without on-board diagnostic fault memory), only the fault triangle is part of the mandatory equipment. The vignette is added while driving on the highway.
CH tag is mandatory
However, different laws apply in other countries. Therefore, the relevant legal provisions should be checked before going abroad. CH tag is required. Written permission of the vehicle owner is important for rented vehicles. Safety vests are mandatory in many countries.
Depending on the destination, there are also: emergency pharmacy, fire extinguisher, tow rope, wheel chock or spare bulb. The green insurance card is mandatory, especially in Eastern and Southern European countries. In Germany, Italy and France, environmental badges are required to enter certain cities. France requires you to carry a breathalyzer.
Differences from country to country
Caution: Limits on blood alcohol as well as permissible speed differ from country to country. More information is available at www.tourismustcs.ch. A spare wheel with jack and tools, a jumper cable, a parking disc, a flashlight and a blanket is not essential but can be very useful.
