  • Overtaking ban … who cares ?!

    On Sunday there was an interesting article in the Sat1 car magazine on the topic of overtaking … “WEN wanted to taste it.” There was also the “Rügen-Sache” mentioned, but only on the edge. Much more emphasis was placed on how everyday “very dangerous” the overtaking is practically implemented on our roads. It is overtaken, cut in fast-track sections … almost always dangerous … and far too often with consequences of accidents. Also a “self-test” was shown …. with documen … cameras hidden in the minibus. The minibus drove at the highest possible speed (so nothing with Schleicher) a distance in which the overtaking was forbidden…. It was overtaken by whole columns of vehicles formerly behind it. Some of these drivers were then questioned about their dangerous offense … the ignorant often arrogant answers spoke for themselves … “I always do this like this”, “I decide whether overtaking ban applies or not”, “I can’t do what … On the other hand, only … much more controls, much higher financial and applied driving ban penalties … this clientele likes to pay every penalty … money that the state can use well … so he can get it from voluntary donors Greeting Q

  • Driver’s license?!?!

    Hi, I only have a short question, and hope for a quick answer, unfortunately I have no idea where I should put this question otherwise:P earlier was claimed in a discussion that theoretically I could be deprived of the license from the pole if I was clearly too fast, but neither laser nor any other technical whitening agent would have been in use… i.e. by pure appreciation of the officials… would the pole would not be in the obligation of proof and would have to prove to me that I was too fast was?! is even a fine possible, because of speed overrun??? hope for quick answer, thank you

  • bonnet snaps up on the highway..

    Day together! Can’t believe it yet… After my father had to leave his BMW this morning (water pump seems to be broken) he got the Jaguar of a workmate. So he drove to the gas station during the day. (He’s in the field service/customer service) The tanker informed him that his bonnet was not completely closed. My father looked, she wasn’t completely locked in. He pressed her hands so that she snapped in audiblely, and also opti He went off again, on the highway, accelerated to about 130km/h, at the moment, according to his statement, the bonnet ripped up in a set, knuckled back away, the windshield got several cracks. Fortunately, he could drive relatively quietly on the stand strip, was enough space. Then he saw the full extent, the dampers were completely torn out, the hood had spread, bumps and bends in several places, the disc was torn several times, on the roof There are pictures here The whole thing went well, had quite a bit of luck…How can something like this happen? The car is neither old nor badly cared for. The question is above all: Who is now responsible for this damage?! How can it be that it is completely out of print? Normal you have to unlock it from the inside, from the outside also again.

  • BAB frenzy with NSL – (no) a cavalier offense?

    Hi, since I have been travelling a lot on German motorways because of my job, I notice that the majority of the contemporaries, who have turned on the fog lamp despite sufficient visibility, do not adhere to the then permissible maximum speed of 50 km/h, but partially exceed it by up to 120 km/h. At the same time I notice that these speed crossings are apparently rarely punished. T?

  • 3 years 3 months for Raser von Rügen

    Quotation: Judgment against accident drivers of Rügen Stralsund (dpa) – The cause of the serious traffic accident with four dead on Rügen was sentenced to three years and three months imprisonment on Tuesday. The judges accused him of negligent killing and negligent road traffic risk. The Stralsund Regional Court considered it proven that the 24-year-old on 4 June caused the death of four 18-year-olds with a risky overtaking maneuver. With the verdict the court remained under the demand of the prosecutor, who pleaded for three years and nine months imprisonment. The secondary prosecutors had demanded the maximum penalty of five years for negligent killing, the defense of two years imprisonment on probation. 20 September 2005 8:01 pm Source: dpa

  • Heck rack, yawn, there’s something better than that.

    Well, I just had to get back to the discussion about the rear racks opened by Marsupilami72 given – is really crass what you read there at times – finest literature No, seriously. Who thinks rear racks are the most dangerous, what you can build in the car, I will now teach him a better one. I saw recently such an extraüble driving around: speaker boxes lying on the rear shelf. Seriously: These were two boxes, one left, one right, on the rear shelf, the remaining I wouldn’t be surprised if the driver gets the boxes at his head, a frontal impact with a speed of 60-70 km/h and the boxes will be flying P.S.: I know that the previous thread on the topic of rear racks was blocked, dear mods, from me also locks this thread right after this post, I just didn’t want to keep this experience to myself *g*

  • HELP!!! The right choice????

    So as soon as I have my car again (workshop) I want to make a few improvements. Unfortunately, I don’t know how to do it with the boxes & amplifiers yet but I like to learn about it ;o). I’ll list you quickly what I’ve installed at the moment so that you understand what it’s all about *g*: VORNE: I’ve installed the audio system PX 130 Pro – Performance Line in front (I think I’m good for the price & I can’t afford doorboards for 16’s -.-). öner die dabei dabei (Combo) Hinterten: Audio-System CO 165 *really ridiculous* Luggage compartment: Audio-System Twister F4-560 [Stainless steel] ;o) Bass reflex housing (replacement bracket 35-40 liters) equipped with the Audio-System X–ion 12 So what I wanted to do now is the following! It’s just about the part in the back, with the rest I’m too happy. The boxes in the back are already bullshit boxes ;o). In addition, the F-4 is fully occupied with bass and boxes in the front. That means the coaxial system in the back runs over d I have received the following offer: Twister F2-280 audio system (used) for 190€ instead of 300€ PX 165 per audio system for 150€ (then have also 2 tweeters playing from behind) Are these good prices??? I want a very good performance yield so that the 16’ers balance the smaller 13’s in their effect ( The guy wanted to do it just that way that my F4 then amplifies the boxes and the F2 is paired alone for the bass. (as far as I know it’s not possible from the slots at all). I don’t know what the things are good. Is the power amplifier good? The boxes? I just want what the really pressure is doing with the boxes… I also saw the audio system RX 165 Pro Performance Line, but do they make a big difference to the PX? Do you have any more ideas what you want to do? I am happy about good advice and possibly links for good boxes/power amplifiers. Mfg Snuff.

  • Did I scrap my VRX??

    something bad happened… I went home from work earlier, made radio on, once again a loud whistle next to the music. strangely enough it wasn’t there 8 hours ago and I didn’t play anything at all in the time. it’s: again not speed dependent even at radio 0 whistles it I can not explain where that comes from at once!?? have also pulled off a short chinch cable but also there whistles it. so it can’t be from the radio already. I’m afraid I scraped you et… there’s no more performance, it’s all clipping early… fertile I tell you… who’s a tip what can be going on? where do I put it if I want to have it repaired?

  • Powercap necessary??

    I have an amp from Monacor Carpower (HPB 1002). Brings about 300 watts of RMS and a sub from Rockford Fosegate Punsh Z 3410 with 150 watts of RMS power. The amp runs to about 70% of its power! The manufacturer recommends to switch a 0.5 Farad Powercap! Is that necessary? Does that even bring something (better sound, release of Lima) in this performance class? Which cap is recommended? 0.5F or better equal to 1F?
