I’ve been told that foreigners when they first come to Germany and drive on the autobahn believe Ausfahrt is a very big city since there are so many exists pointing towards it.

Ausfahrt of course, is “exit”. Notwithstanding, especially USAmericans think it very funny to omit the h and snigger about the directional aus (aka “out”).

Ausfahrt really just means exit, hence you will often see it meaning “Keep clear!” or “Do not block exit/driveway”.

Anybody still confused?
