Razor on Germany's streets: The terrifying truth on ZDF!
Razor on Germany's streets: The terrifying truth on ZDF!
Köln-Poll, Deutschland - On Pentecost Sunday, June 8th, an exciting documentary entitled "Tatort Straße" will be broadcast on ZDF. This documentary deals with the explosive theme of the razor and Poser on German roads. It becomes clear that the connection to the well-known ARD crime series "crime scene" is purely accidental, because the dangers of illegal car races are very real. Statistically speaking, such dangerous activities occur in Germany every day, as can be read at Tagesspiegel
illegal street races are not only a problem for the participants themselves, but also endanger the safety of uninvolved road users. A terrifying example is the case of Maya, a 21-year-old bank clerk who lost her life due to the overtaking maneuver of a razor. Her mother is now fighting for tougher punishments against such offenses that cost numerous lives every year. It is particularly tragic that around every third fatigue in Germany is killed due to excessive speeds, as the documentary illuminates.
The numbers speak for themselves
Traffic accidents caused by illegal car races have been increasing steadily since 2017, although the punishments can now be up to ten years in prison. In 2023, a total of 1,733 illegal car racing were registered in Germany. Tragic accidents such as that of an 11-year-old boy in Dortmund illustrate the enormous risks. The Spiegel reports that the police recorded a significant increase in such incidents.
The tragic incidents are mostly caused by young men between the ages of 19 and 20. A classic example is the case of a 19-year-old driver in Hamburg who caused a fatal collision with a Mercedes-AMG (612 hp). Similar events are documented in Dortmund, Frankfurt and Kiel. Such figures not only challenge the police, but also the legislators who should think about how young people can better protect against the dangers of the lawn.
Cologne in the focus of controls
In Cologne-Poll, there were recently conflicts between razors and citizens, which led to the installation of a barrier in order to counteract the problem. The police have reacted and increasingly carries out controls, especially on days such as the "Car-Friday". In these operations, over a hundred vehicles were checked and several illegally converted cars were closed. The goal is clear: security on the streets must be guaranteed.
The documentary "Tatort Straße" will be broadcast on June 8th at 4.50 a.m. and repeated again at 6 p.m. This not only deals with the dangers of these illegal races, but also the voice of those affected, such as Maya's mother. Additional information about the dramatic developments in this area are also in the
The future requires society to be vigilant and act consistently. The increase in police controls, the discussion about specialized driver's licenses for high -performance vehicles and preventive measures can possibly make the difference. What is certain is that "Tatort Straße" is an important step in the education about the dangers of the lawn and perhaps contributes to raising awareness of these problems.
