In her political talk show “Maischberger” (Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 10:45 p.m. in the first) the mobility turnaround has always been the dominant topic in recent years. Sandra Maischberger (56) herself has already said goodbye to her own car, as she now reports in an interview with “Bild am Sonntag”. And that decades ago: “When I moved from Munich to Hamburg 30 years ago, I gave up my car.”
At that time she lived on the outskirts of Poppenbüttel and thanks to the S-Bahn line 1 she was able to enjoy a good connection to the city. Without a car it was “no problem back then”. When she later moved to Berlin, it got even better: “I walk, ride my bike, take the subway or S-Bahn, I prefer the tram to the bus.” She also operates car sharing or likes to use electric scooters.
She also sometimes takes a taxi: “That has the great advantage that I can also work, for example when I drive to our studio in Adlershof.” If she were at the wheel herself, it would be “wasted time” for the presenter. In addition, you can drive a lot of taxis if you consider how much a car costs to maintain. In conclusion, the talk show hostess: “You really don’t need your own car to get from A to B in a city like Berlin.”
