Many scrap wheels block seats and train stations in Munich – now they should disappear in a hauruck action. Who sees his Radl wrongly disposed of, must hurry up.

Leaving, forgetting, ripe for bulky waste: hundreds of "scrap wheels" not only take the already scarce room at stations or squares in large cities such as Hamburg or Munich. In Munich, the scrap bikes are now Rigoros away, reports Bayrische Rundfunk. The action of the city administration runs until 25. October. "These wheels provide an unpleasant sight and also block the place to the bike racks. Focus of this year’s Schrottrad action are the main train station area, the Stachus, the Sendlinger-Tor Square, the Viktualienmarkt, the station Pasing and the valley. The BaurEferat sets the greatest value to a legally secure procedure as part of this action. Therefore, only clearly recognizable wheels or bicycle parts are collected as a scrap, "it says from the city administration.

  1. Scrap wheels?
    Who determines what is scrap wheels and what not? Maybe yes the lower paid … Who determines what is scrap wheels and what not? Maybe the lower-paid worker with the flex in the hand and after a few days he goes to the collection point and concedes the wheel. My so-called "City blanket", which sometimes have to wait for a whole week at the station when I travel operational, has a desired gammle appearance, so that it stops there. Incidentally, one should donate the Munich police in terms of StVO, not every signposted bike path is also a bicycle path. Me have ever been in green in this so-called "City with heart" Pushed with violence on a walkway (cyclist free).

  2. This disposal action…
    …Is absolute class. I wish that for my city too.

  3. This fine catalog is probably a joke
    Almost all racing birds drive without bells and without light and mostly not on the bike path, since the bike path requires partially canceled. Checking anywhere anyway and you are also getting back to the next corner disappeared.

  4. who decides?
    There is a rule on how to create a bike participating in Munich on public road traffic? The functionality can not be the distinguishing feature, because you will not be able to test it comprehensively on a securely parked wheel. Since it is public pitches, it should not be a question of personal taste, to decide who cycles. This is in Bavaria privacy. And an old, retracted wheel can have added value for his owner, which a public official neither knows nor detect. Difficult decision, because de parking spots are limited to beautiful historical places. How about a distribution of pitches on time?

  5. Which bikes?
    In the city you can see many, every second has ne "Eight" or it is missing one or both wheels, then no one could tell me more, it was in use!
