With the Euro Championships kicking off later today, cantonal police forces have issued guidance to fans who feel like they need to bast their car horns while driving through the streets.
In a true Swiss compromise – you can for an hour after the game. But leaning out of the windows is a ‘no’ – at all times.
The rules of the road are clear – honking for joy is illegal – but police say they will use common sense.
But they will clamp down on anything they see as dangerous – such as leaning or waving out of the windows.
But Lucerne police – and it could be true for others – say making a noise outside hospitals or residential homes will not be allowed.
However, all forces make one thing clear – there’ll be no tolerance for drink driving.
