Hello everyone,
We are about to purchase a plot of land that slopes down from the street. For this reason, we want to first consider what is technically possible before buying it. The biggest challenge seems to be the height of the garage built on the property line if we want to build at street level. Here is a picture of the situation:
Unfortunately, with a base that raises the ground and a garage height of, let's say, 3 meters (10 feet), the permitted height of 3.20 meters (10.5 feet) required in Rhineland-Palatinate would be exceeded. What possible solutions do you see?
Thank you in advance.

Honestly, the suggestion to simply skip the garage is the best thing I've read so far *head shake*Many brilliant ideas are simple, but I don’t get the head shaking while you praise it.haydee schrieb:

What is currently happening politically in the mobility sector is appalling and threatens the foundation of our prosperity.Too many cooks spoil the broth applies here as well, even exponentially. But the environment is actually still treating comparatively well; education, however, is being driven to ruin by politics even more.haydee schrieb:

Battery cars are a dead end, mark my words.Exactly. Calling ten thousand phone batteries on a floorpan a messiah is self-mockery at best. Promoting cars with battery motors but without regenerative braking (!) is sheer madness. Electric instead of combustion engines is as sensible as swapping the devil for Beelzebub. Technologies that oppose one another are being promoted, not ecumenism. Combining different drive technologies would make sense, but the lobbyists want a war of systems.guckuck2 schrieb:
In 30 years there will still be cars. VW will still be making cars, but maybe their logo won’t be on the hood anymore.That’s really just proof of effective marketing psychology that we still talk about “car manufacturers.” They are mostly just assemblers of specialized supplied systems decorated with body shells. The crucial parts actually come from Bosch, Magna, and other well-known component and system suppliers; the “manufacturing” of brand badged labels exists only in the minds of advertising recipients.guckuck2 schrieb:

For that, there needs to be public transport.Public transport worked perfectly well until it was privatized—so much for the idea that “politics only go wrong when politicians take charge.”https://www.instagram.com/11antgmxde/

Great concepts with a catch.
I’ll talk about my own situation now.
Carpooling doesn’t work. No one commutes from my town to my workplace.
Public transportation (public transit) is the same for the same reason.
Carsharing or carpooling with whom? If I don’t have appointments, the car just sits idle for hours. But the next house is 600 m (660 yards) away. What happens if, for example, the daycare or school calls and the child needs to be picked up?
You pick up packages in town X, 5 km (3 miles) from your home in one direction, and shopping is in town Y, 15 km (9 miles) in the other direction. You can also pick up packages there, but not for your home town.
Daycare is in town Z, shopping is in town Y.
And there are still many young people and families here, with numbers increasing. Not only elderly people live in the village. There are advantages.
Personal: Because I live in the town center, I can take care of many things on foot.
There are ride-sharing benches and community buses that try, for example, to go to the city on a fixed day. Getting a doctor's appointment there is an art in itself.

I’ll start with myself now Exactly. You start with yourself. Take me with you, then there will be two of us, because even with my professional routine, the mentioned concepts are either not feasible or only possible with significant limitations and drawbacks.
However, I still see no reason to dismiss alternative mobility concepts as unsuitable across the board.

If I don’t have any appointments, the car just sits there for hours. That’s also one of the questions that need to be addressed in the context of “new mobility.” Do I have to move from point A to point B to perform my job when there is no immediate necessity (in your case, probably appointments)?

Well, it’s hard to blame politics for what VW did with the defeat devices. As for the fact that a roughly 12-year-old startup producing about 370,000 units (of modest quality) is leading the entire German automotive industry, they are responsible for that themselves.
It wasn’t just VW. Other manufacturers included a note in their manuals stating that “shutoff can occur for component protection.”
In another company’s case, the state government suppressed the issue.
I don’t think the shutoff is acceptable. Only those who prioritize the environment shouldn’t have bought most of these models anyway.
Things aren’t just black and white.
You can say what you want, but there will always be at least two types of vehicles here, regardless of the powertrain.

I was out walking earlier. On one street, there are basically three options.
I’m not sure how feasible they are with your zoning plan (building permit/planning permission) and property.

I can't say to what extent they can be implemented with your building permit / planning permission and property. Hi, thank you very much for your effort and for bringing the discussion back to the original topic.
