In the dispute over the failed amendment to the rules of the road bounce of the countries, cities, the Federal government and the associations to each other. The German Association of towns and municipalities calls for a balanced set of rules, for example, a “ban on probation”, the ADAC sees in the light of the discussion on the effectiveness of the highway code, the risk of misunderstandings to a “free for speeders”. Baden-württemberg’s transport Minister Winfried Hermann speaks, meanwhile, is adamantly opposed to a departure from the tougher sanctions.
The fault lies with the Federal Minister of transport, Andreas Scheuer (CSU), of the attempts now, to correct what he likes, said the Green politician of the German press Agency.
Green’s insistence on a new driver’s license-path rule
Scheuer wants to negotiate with the countries that stricter regulations on driving bans are made when speeding back. According to dpa-information representative of the Federation and the länder on Monday to advise on the Department head level, the current situation. The professionals not only speak about what sanctions there will be offenders in the future. You have to deal with how to deal with the cases where the tougher new rules have already been applied.
Hermann said the dpa: “The green side is completely clear: We want a quick formal legal correction without modification of the measures adopted.” Hermann coordinated the theme of the action of the green Minister of transport and senators.
But an agreement is possible?
in Addition, it must be now, quickly, a uniform transition scheme, he said. The should look after Hermann’s view, so that only the few facts that are not regulated in the amendment to legally clean, be temporarily handled according to the old law and all other by the new rules. The go but only if the Federal government and the Länder agreed. The secret Killer: mobile phone at the wheel, FOCUS Online/Wochit The secret Killer: mobile phone at the wheel
The chief Executive of the city and Gemeindebunds, Gerd Landsberg, said the “New osnabrück newspaper”, you could certainly ask “whether it is really proportionate, if someone, perhaps many years, “points”, concedes a single such violation, with a driving ban should be”. Would be possible, for example, to increase the fines significantly, but to impose driving bans more only at significantly fast Driving, said Landsberg. “If it is a first-time violation, it could also be a ban on parole thought.”
ADAC does not take a clear Position
ADAC traffic President Gerhard Hillebrand said on Sunday: “The debate, the highway code is an invitation to be used as a free letter for speeders misunderstood and affect traffic safety.” The traffic club advocate, to prosecute reckless speeders uncompromising. “The truth is also that not everyone who was affected under the new rules, a ban on driving, is a notorious speeder.” The ADAC refers, however, no clear Position as to whether the new rules should apply, or it can stay in the past. Something that the President of the small-ADAC-competition-Clubs “Mobil in Deutschland”, Michael Haberland, on the palm brings: “I do not understand the ADAC. 20 million members, all drivers – and rather than stand clearly on their side, no clear words. Motorists pay so much money and get that instead of beating and little power. And should now deliver much faster to the driver’s license. For smaller Transgressions. This can be up to 2 million driver’s licenses more in annual costs,” says Haberland. private Michael Haberland is head of the clubs in the car mobile in Germany
“This can go two million driver’s licenses cost”
In the case that since the end of April, a month of driving licence withdrawal threatens, if you are driving urban 21 kilometers per hour too fast or extra-urban 26 km/h too fast – this was brought to the Federal Council in the StVO amendment into it. Previously, the limits were Exceeded by 31 km/h in town and 41 km/h outside. Due to a formal error in the regulation the new rules were set, but now, nationwide, of the countries for the time being, except for law enforcement.

Of Chaos and uncertainty, want to know the Federal Minister of transport, Andreas Scheuer (CSU), meanwhile, is nothing. “The method of the violations in may and June, according to the new schedule of fines to be – as promised – of the countries exposed to. And now the old fine is the catalogue, and is applied, as in the last few years,” he said of the “Passauer Neue Presse” (Saturday). So, there is a no-right Situation. He is also negotiating with the countries.
A Ministry spokesman had said on Friday, in coordination with the competent ministries of the countries working under high pressure at a rapid clarification. There are, on the one hand, to correct the form error in the StVO-Novelle. This was a Chance, a “disproportionality” in the catalog of fines right.
