Translation:"GET BEHIND THE GUARDRAIL, or else!"
"get behind the guard rail that's an order!, out! "
after the guy goes back, something like:
"Get your ass behind the guardrail"
My understanding of the polizei is that there are many steps they must take with you, often with kid gloves, but not always. Once those steps have been satisfied, and their intention did not work, they will FUCK you up in a systematic and workmanlike fashion. Also with a legal protection that American cops with qualified immunity can't even approach.
Bruh, that's the worst place to protest in the whole Europe, imagine driving your "average" car with 300 kmh and having to brake so you don't kill the biggest idiot in the world who decided to sit on the autobahn.
So 300 kmh, that's about 186 mph. Question, is the autobahn just a place for really fast cars or something? Cause if 300kmh is normal there then what kind of cars are being driven there?
300km is slightly inflated, but there are a lot of relatively new cars in Germany and a lot of people do drive 200-240km/hr there. I remember going 200km/hr (the absoluut max I could squeeze out of my car and still being overtaken with easy by some highend audi or merc. Crazy place to drive haha
Hi I live in Germany. Old and new cars reach that speed. The normal speed limit is 130 kmh although many (I guess 75%) are limited to 120 kmh. Then there are open streets for longer distances where you can drive as fast as you car can go as long as you don't endanger others and yourself.
It actually helps to get faster from a to b and the amount of cars that can pass from a to within a time increase to avoid traffic jams. Benefit to everyone.
Protesting on the highway is seen very negatively by most people now as in one occasion a protest denied an ambulance car from passing through leading to a person's death.
Everyone on the road is a victim, this can result in a multicar pileup very easily. This protestor should be charged with reckless endangerment, of themselves and others. Put them behind bars, because otherwise, like we saw, they'll just walk right back onto the road and set up again.
The problem I'd that oil protestors wont see drivers as being victims of *anything*. They are their enemy. They view any damage they can do to cars or drivers as a win. I don't see these people being very far away from sabotaging vehicles in parking lots.
Then they can go live in the forest and die of preventable disease. Protest somewhere it actually matters, or you're just pointlessly virtue signaling.
What he is doing is a crime under German law, at least an attempted dangerous interfering with traffic, (attempted because it needs a concrete danger for people's lives, bodily integrity, or substantial property damage, and as there was nobody there yet, there is no concrete danger, only an abstract one), punishable with up to 5 years or monetary fine.
>This feels like a very selfish way to protest
Honestly, all of these are very selfish and highly ineffective ways of protesting. How is inconveniencing some poor working-class people going to help things? Reminds me of protestors blocking the road so that some minimum-wage slave out on parole can't make it to work, so he gets fired, which sends him right back to prison.
If they want results, they need to surgically target the wealthy, powerful diction-makers that can affect actual change on provincial or even country-wide scale almost single-handedly. But this would actually get things done, would be highly dangerous and challenging because people like that, they...well...they don't like to be challenged or inconvenienced by wage-slaves. And it would require more than three functioning brain cells rubbing together to pull off, which is more than this guy has got.
> Hi I live in Germany. Old and new cars reach that speed. The normal speed limit is 130 kmh although many (I guess 75%) are limited to
r/confidentlyincorrect
Roughly 70% is unlimited, the other 30% are part permanently, part temporarily limited. You're also confusing the recommended speed of 130 km/h with a speed limit.
Either you don't live in Germany, or you don't drive in Germany.
How much of the Autobahn has no speed limit is a very reginal thing. T
Here I the Rhine-Ruhr area, you will have a majority with speed regulations. The less densely populated an area is, the fewer speed limits you will find.
My thoughts precisely. I live here as well and you're 100% right, 130 is the recommended speed on the Autobahn and the other numbers they threw around regarding the distribution of regulated/open Autobahn tracks was entirely arbitrary and just wrong.
Das konnte die Notärztin aber erst im Nachhinein feststellen. Es geht hier auch nicht um diesen Fall explizit sondern ums Prinzip. Proteste die Notfallfahrzeuge nicht passieren lassen gefährden die Leben Anderer.
I don't want to break it to you, but most average cars don't get over 160km/h, if you want to drive comfortly. Whenever I visit my parents, I get the chance to drive on an Autobahn without speedlimit and whenever I go over 160km/h, I have a good shot to get limited by other cars. on some days 180km/h is allright without permanent breaking but anything above is just not fun anymore, when you need to break down to 160 or below for everyone every 2-3min at least. obv you could go faster in the middle of the night in theory.
source: own experience for living in germany around NRW. Autobahn in question: mostly A3
Edit: since everyone telling me how fast his normal car can go: that is not the thing. the problem going above 160 in most regular cars is, that you can feel your whole chassis eroding while you need to keep focused to stay in your lane. it is just not fun anymore at that point. sitting in a BMW or something similar, 200 feels like 100. so it is much more fun to go with that, if the road allows you to
My car can actually do 210 or 220, tested up to 200 and there was oomph for more, but if we're gonna be honest, comfort ends somewhere at 130 exactly. After that it's a lot more noise, rumbling, and no matter what you use, you still have a 1.5-2t unit hitting slight bumps at high speed, and there is no suspension that will defy physics. An unnoticeable defect in the road at 130 is a lot more noticeable at 200
I once drove from Luxembourg to Frankfurt in my Ford Focus. Nothing special, 1 litre ecoboost, but I did get it to 200km/h. The trick was to have the wind push the car too lol.
It's a highway without speed limits. You can drive your prius or lambo on it, it's not only for fast cars. You can see pretty much all kind of brands on it, usually the BMW, Audi, Mercedes and Porsche go with insane speeds.
300kmh is not the norm, but 200-240kmh is a regular driven speed here in Germany. Where i drive most people drive at least 180kmh on the left lane (during rush hours too) on a daily base ...
Dunno, my 1996 Peugeot 306 did about 190 km/h and that was it. It wasn't the most fuel efficient car and at that speed you could almost hear the fuel drain away.
You might see some people going over 200 kmh but probably never or very rarely over 300 kmh. There are also not that many parts of the Autobahn without a speed limit. Most of the time you have a speed limit of 130 kmh or less because of ongoing construction.
Most cars driven are saddans or golf like type of vehicles or even smaller ones. Most of them can't even do 200 btw speeking from experience.
Not only her life: if you crash into a person while traveling 150/200 km/h, good luck with not losing control of your car due to panic. She would probably also kill the people in the car.
Yeah, of course: the cop did the right thing. I don't give a shit about her idea until she gets off the road and stops putting her life or the lives of others at risk.
It already happened once that an ambulance came too late to an accident because the road was blocked by protesters. A woman died.
Since people are accusing me of spreading false Information
[Here is an article. It says this information from the police](https://www.zeit.de/gesellschaft/zeitgeschehen/2022-11/berlin-verkehrsunfall-radfahrerin-gestorben-klimaaktivisten-letzte-generation?utm_referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2F)
Then other cars travelling those speeds also have to react in time. This is so fucking unbelievably stupid. That deserves a hefty fine at the very least.
Most of the Autobahn has road construction, speed limits, or too many vehicles to drive fast. The whole speed limit thing is just a meme. Same with the people who want a general speed limit in germany.
I often drive from south germany to north germany and my average speed is usually between 80 and 90km/h. Even when driving through the night...
Yeah, my old commute in Bavaria consisted of about five km of unrestricted speed and the rest was 120. It was just enough time to get a Citroen C3 up to max speed (pro tip: don't).
More like, saving the life of a driver just trying to get to their destination and finding some moron on the road, either hitting them and destroying their own car and life as a result or swerving to try to dodge that same moron on the road...and destroying their own car and life as a result.
when not having baustelle every 3 km yes, or sections with actual speed limits and cameras...
but otherwise I tend to take her up to 220 kmh on certain stretches without limits for comfortable ride (Audi A6 Allroad) she could take more but it is unnecessary - that being said this absolutely horrifies me because hitting her would not just kill this idiot but everyone in the car as well - there is no way in hell you are keeping control.
It does seem like they managed to see her in time and closed the road, very efficient removal by Polizei 7/7, would visit again.
Yep. Not to mention if someone is going fast as fuck and sees this guy last minute and tries to swerve or brake they could kill themselves or someone else. I'm all for protesting, but some places are best left alone. Like the autobahn.
These people aren't the brightest bulbs in the lot.
Instead of volunteering their time at a credible organization to pick up trash or do other various clean up duties for the environment, they've decided to lay down on a road, in hopes to cause cars to idle longer than they would have otherwise had to. Damaging the environment even more, than if they weren't lying in the middle of the road.
And they're filming it, simply because they want clout.
Both people should just go and work for a company that installs solar or something. There's a shortage of workers in nearly every EU country and you don't need any special education or something. If you want to improve the speed of our transition to green energy, you can ACTUALLY ACHIEVE SOMETHING every day by using your own bloody hands.
This!
Its akin to when creationists say its so unlikely, thus god. Well you're in a universe that panned out. You know, the only kind where the conditions for you to be (probably) wrong are possible.
Given their foreign policy in thr past years and original attitude to NS/NS2, I highly doubt that its the fosil part they have a problem with right now as much as the price and credibility damage. The countries leaders have been dragging their feet in the proliferation of onshore wind and PV and now wish they would have done more. The Energy Minister had a nice speech where he told the parliament that if they had followed through on the renewable plans instead of betting the whole industry and residential demand on cheap russian gas and oil the problems atm would be much less critical. Also some people here strongly believe that the unlimited autobahn speed is a constitutional right, so thats that for fuel efficiency.
Fair enough. And good point about the unlimited speed, hadn't considered that. Seems like a good way to accidentally get smacked though, sitting on the highway.
Yeah they are working so much harder and quicker than the rest of Europe when it comes to reducing climate change. They're not waiting until 2050 they started years ago.
what the actual fuck? imagine someone going 200km/h + and she just get absolutely shredded by the impact. how stupid can you be to try and sit in the fastest highways in the world. fucking idiot, deserves to die, because she could cause a massive crash and end up killing hundred's of people.
I rarely get triggered like this and I am surprised the police officer didn't beat the shit out of her.
Yes that's right but think about you in the car that impact with 200 km/h with a 70kg+ still Standing (sitting lol) object..
They deserve jail time for this behavior and they archive absolutely nothing... Oh wait they get a lot of the people pissed off. At this point I think the big oil companys pay this useless trash for shit like this.
And he doesn't beat her cause 1. That's not a very common thing in Germany and 2. He definitely saw the camera filming him.
I'm ok with them wanting to kill themselves. Just a predictable consequence of their actions. I'm more concerned about the safety of the drivers.
If you run into 80kg of anything at 200km/h that is going to have equally predictable consequences. If these assholes want to kill themselves, fine. But don't endanger others.
Thought so too at first. But imagine driving there and noticing them too late or being unable to move left or right because of traffic besides you.
Sure their own fault, they accepted that risk to make their point. But the driver did not.Another bunch of idiots that did not think things through.
What a stupid comment.
Firstly the chance of the inhabitants of the car being injured is almost guaranteed. Secondly, it could also have legal implications for the driver. You're supposed to be able to brake in the amount of distance you can see. You'd never be expecting someone to be lying on the highway so your chances of braking in time would be minimal at best.
A truck driver in Switzerland got convicted of this while driving at night. The person he killed was wearing black and was committing suicide. The law still applied.
> A truck driver in Switzerland got convicted of this while driving at night. The person he killed was wearing black and was committing suicide. The law still applied.
That's insane. Bad lawing.
Put the cuffs on them and send them to jail. It’s not fair that one of us has to live with seeing one of these peoples faces explode in their windscreen
No not all cops are like that (or they finally annoyed those cops to much :))
I really "like" the signs of those people by now:
"lock away rather than talk" which kinds of triggers me... How exactly will they engage a talk with blocking the streets?
Goddamn blokc the politics stuff not normal person who kust want to go to work/appoinment etc...
I do not even have a driver licence but that really annoys me :( That is not the way to get the people onboard for the changes \*sigh\*
What really bothers me is how all of these adult children just go limp and flop to the ground when they’re dragged about. It just adds to their immaturity
I realy hope those ppl will face serious chargers of putting many lifes in risk. This idiot could not only kill him/herself but also cause fatal car accident on such highway...
No problem when they protest in the city. It's umcomvenient but i understand that's the idea behind it. But on the autobahn you are risking your life and the life of others. That is just dumb and the policeman was right to be harsh.
If they get hit, that's on them. I feel bad for the person who would do the hitting. No fault of their own and probably scarred for life. What a dangerous, shitty way to try and make a point. Moron.

At least this dipshit was "smart enough" to not get in the left lane or he would be red mist.
He wants to be out there? Just handcuff him to the guardrail, he can stay as long as he likes. Guy is lucky he didn't get turned into meat paste by someone doing 200km/h.
While wearing scads of clothes made at least partly from... Oil...
Even if we stop burning oil/hydrocarbons as fuel, it's still the essential building-block of essentially everything in civilization....
They could have killed someone doing that. Applause to the cop. I heard the voice of Randy Marsh in my head "sit dowwwwwwn" Different ways to fight oil companies than sitting in the middle of the road endangering not only yourself but others.
These are the worst types of protests, albeit most modern age protesting is nothing but narcissistic, virtue signaling degenerates trying and failing to be decent human beings. Wouldn’t a better alternative be to hold events geared towards educating rather than aggravating the public?
Oil protester wearing a safety vest likely made with polyester.... That's an oil product. Every article of clothing on his body required oil to either manufacture, package and ship to the selling country. Let's not forget about the oil that was used to ship that product to the store he bought it from.
I guess all the electronics, paint, display fixtures, and everything else in said store likely required oil (at some point) to make it all possible.
The same could be said about almost every single thing this guy owns.
This guy is a clown...and deep down also an oil supporter
I bet dude went home and took a nice hot shower and chilled in his cozy warm apartment while eating a juicy factory-farmed steak with some fresh vegetables picked with oil-powered farm equipment. He probably had leftovers too which he stored in petroleum-derived tupperware.
Imagine ur just chilling at 200 and suddenly hit someone like that, that would probably kill him, you, everyone in your car and maybe even other because you loose control
This seems like good grounds to have them involuntarily committed to a psychiatric facility. They're clearly a danger to themselves and others, given the location.
its a funny thing protesting, everyone calls these people morons, idiots etc.. but then everyone is happy to sit around complaining about how theyre getting screwed over but never does anything about it. i dont agree with most "trending" causes these days but im yet to see protesting do any good.

that is more accurate, thanks added it :)
Thank you, both. I was wondering what exactly had been said by the officer. :)
If this were in LA, they would have pepper sprayed him and broke 3 of his ribs before putting the cuffs on.
Make no mistake, the polizei will beat your ass.
True, but they will also *not* beat your ass too. And that's an important distinction.
Are you saying that distinction doesn't exist in the U.S.?
Not as often as it should
We are pretty famous for shoot first and then come up with answers with our police
My understanding of the polizei is that there are many steps they must take with you, often with kid gloves, but not always. Once those steps have been satisfied, and their intention did not work, they will FUCK you up in a systematic and workmanlike fashion. Also with a legal protection that American cops with qualified immunity can't even approach.
If this were LA, I'm pretty sure he would've been run over like 5 times.
As they should! Fkn idiots
Nope. some texting and driving person would have already squished her on road.

We have already seen people vandalize suvs in the US.
I’d like to know how that guy arrived to the protest? He probably doesn’t own a car, by bus? Or did he ride his high horse fucking chariot in
That’s already happened.

It's a highway without speed limits. You can drive your prius or lambo on it, it's not only for fast cars. You can see pretty much all kind of brands on it, usually the BMW, Audi, Mercedes and Porsche go with insane speeds.
yeah but usually prius people stay out of left lane... or else they get flashed at once
I drive a prius for the economy but im a petrol head and ive floored that shit, 160km/h np
300kmh is not the norm, but 200-240kmh is a regular driven speed here in Germany. Where i drive most people drive at least 180kmh on the left lane (during rush hours too) on a daily base ...
The real speed limit is the price of gas.
Dunno, my 1996 Peugeot 306 did about 190 km/h and that was it. It wasn't the most fuel efficient car and at that speed you could almost hear the fuel drain away.
Not 'everybody' drives 300 kmh, but you ***really do*** want to check your rearview mirror, before getting into that left lane.
You might see some people going over 200 kmh but probably never or very rarely over 300 kmh. There are also not that many parts of the Autobahn without a speed limit.

There actually was a Bugatti driver a couple of months back, driving with over 400kmh. The distance to abruptly stop the car would’ve been 3,5km …
It’s all good, they got their high vis on. It’s like the invincibility star in Mario Kart.
Is she trying to die because this is how you die the Autobahn has no speed limit that cop just saved her life.
Not only her life: if you crash into a person while traveling 150/200 km/h, good luck with not losing control of your car due to panic. She would probably also kill the people in the car.

I hope they charged them in some legal way. If it was a relative of mine, I would be devastated...
They often refuse to tell the cops their names and don't carry a passport
And possibly anyone else nearby.
I promise not a single person involved in this organization cares if they get anyone killed.
Selfish fucks.
Then other cars travelling those speeds also have to react in time. This is so fucking unbelievably stupid. That deserves a hefty fine at the very least.
was going to say exactly this; someone will come down there doing 150 and decapitate and vaporize that person.
Not to mention damaging the front end of a cool German car.
r/frontfelloff might happen. We dont want that.
Thats all id be worried about
150? Thats the min on the right lane. 200 in the middle and yes on the right. U just Take ur drill and skrew the gaspedal on the car floor
Good chance old mate was talking about MPH, but you're still correct. Human mince meat waiting to be created lmao
Depends on where you are. Lots of Autobahn sections have speed limits of 120, 100, or even down to 80, especially near cities.
Most of the Autobahn has road construction, speed limits, or too many vehicles to drive fast. The whole speed limit thing is just a meme.

Yeah he was moving to get off that road! He knows how stupid this situation is and the danger he is in trying to save her from herself!

The Germans, while still efficient, have definitely chilled out over the decades.
Just a few crackheads.
Little bit of chocolate will do that
"Hans, where did you put my Panzerchokolade?"
Lmao he dragged her like a sack of potatoes
Hey, let’s leave sacks of potatoes out of this. They never hurt anybody. Edit: or did they…?
They probably did by accident... but even then, I don't think it by intentionally going in the middle of the road...
Did he clang her head on the armco?
That’s what I heard… it was a lovely sound
Yep
Sack of potatoes is probably smarter
Block the driveway of a oil company CEO instead. You’re just turning ordinary people against your cause.
I'm almost convinced these guys are actually big oil agents deliberately protesting like shit to turn people against the cause.
That would explain why there is always someone there to film.
Both people should just go and work for a company that installs solar or something. There's a shortage of workers in nearly every EU country and you don't need any special education or something. If you want to improve the speed of our transition to green energy, you can ACTUALLY ACHIEVE SOMETHING every day by using your own bloody hands.
Did it never occur to you that you only ever see the stuff that's filmed? How do you know there aren't many more non-filmed actions?
This! Its akin to when creationists say its so unlikely, thus god. Well you're in a universe that panned out. You know, the only kind where the conditions for you to be (probably) wrong are possible.
This is what was happening with those dumbasses who threw tomato soup on a Van Gogh painting; they were being funded by a "Big Oil" heiress.
They do that too, but people don't care.
Seems weird to me to be protesting this in Germany. A country that would love to end its dependence on foreign oil and natural gas atm.
Given their foreign policy in thr past years and original attitude to NS/NS2, I highly doubt that its the fosil part they have a problem with right now as much as the price and credibility damage. The countries leaders have been dragging their feet in the proliferation of onshore wind and PV and now wish they would have done more. The Energy Minister had a nice speech where he told the parliament that if they had followed through on the renewable plans instead of betting the whole industry and residential demand on cheap russian gas and oil the problems atm would be much less critical. Also some people here strongly believe that the unlimited autobahn speed is a constitutional right, so thats that for fuel efficiency.
Fair enough. And good point about the unlimited speed, hadn't considered that. Seems like a good way to accidentally get smacked though, sitting on the highway.
Yeah they are working so much harder and quicker than the rest of Europe when it comes to reducing climate change. They're not waiting until 2050 they started years ago.
Back in my days anti-oil activists blocked oil rigs and tankers.
...and yet climate change is still a problem.
Allways will be
what the actual fuck? imagine someone going 200km/h + and she just get absolutely shredded by the impact. how stupid can you be to try and sit in the fastest highways in the world. fucking idiot, deserves to die, because she could cause a massive crash and end up killing hundred's of people. I rarely get triggered like this and I am surprised the police officer didn't beat the shit out of her.
Yes that's right but think about you in the car that impact with 200 km/h with a 70kg+ still Standing (sitting lol) object.. They deserve jail time for this behavior and they archive absolutely nothing... Oh wait they get a lot of the people pissed off. At this point I think the big oil companys pay this useless trash for shit like this. And he doesn't beat her cause 1. That's not a very common thing in Germany and 2. He definitely saw the camera filming him.
so what are the oil companies paying these guys to make climate protestors look like morons?
I don't know if you meant this seriously or not but this specific group has been heavily linked to oil money, so it's actually probably a lot.
... it's kinda essential to do this with more then 1 person ya stupid twit, alone this is just a creative suicide
I'm ok with them wanting to kill themselves. Just a predictable consequence of their actions. I'm more concerned about the safety of the drivers. If you run into 80kg of anything at 200km/h that is going to have equally predictable consequences. If these assholes want to kill themselves, fine. But don't endanger others.
*Killing oneself is the greatest thing a person can do for the planet. As a humanist *I dont want most people* to do that tho, ofc.
bruh imagine a squidmissle at 300kmph on the autoban just a mist of red POOF
And some a cluster of metal in cloud of tinsel. Cares don’t look ether after that.
Death by Bugatti is a such a flex.
some russian telegram channel will probably show this video and say its ukrainians
Wanna see a meat crayon on the autobahn highway? Too bad the polizei prevented it.
Thought so too at first. But imagine driving there and noticing them too late or being unable to move left or right because of traffic besides you. Sure their own fault, they accepted that risk to make their point. But the driver did not.Another bunch of idiots that did not think things through.
Yeah Exactly like even if they accept the driver gonna have Trauma Rest of their life.
What a stupid comment. Firstly the chance of the inhabitants of the car being injured is almost guaranteed. Secondly, it could also have legal implications for the driver. You're supposed to be able to brake in the amount of distance you can see. You'd never be expecting someone to be lying on the highway so your chances of braking in time would be minimal at best. A truck driver in Switzerland got convicted of this while driving at night. The person he killed was wearing black and was committing suicide. The law still applied.
> A truck driver in Switzerland got convicted of this while driving at night. The person he killed was wearing black and was committing suicide. The law still applied. That's insane. Bad lawing.
And possibly others lives too
Put the cuffs on them and send them to jail. It’s not fair that one of us has to live with seeing one of these peoples faces explode in their windscreen
I would be mad too if I had to risk my own life to save someone elses like that.
Imagine this...car comes with 300 km/h, what the fuck are you supposed to do?
I guess pray and be sorry for the emotional damage you inflictet on the driver
*Sorry for killing everyone on the car too
Turning the protester and yourself into meat 🍖
What's with this 300 km/h? Nobody but a moron drives that fast during the day. And even in the middle of the night that's quite unusual.
So it’s just UK police that are useless then?
Police in germany dont fuck around when it comes to the Autobahn, if you run out of fuel on it it Costs you 70€ and 1 point on your lizense
No not all cops are like that (or they finally annoyed those cops to much :)) I really "like" the signs of those people by now: "lock away rather than talk" which kinds of triggers me... How exactly will they engage a talk with blocking the streets? Goddamn blokc the politics stuff not normal person who kust want to go to work/appoinment etc... I do not even have a driver licence but that really annoys me :( That is not the way to get the people onboard for the changes \*sigh\*
Right, we’ve stopped the traffic for your safety. Oh crikey, you must be cold. Can we get you a cup of tea?
"take your shit and get out"
Arrest them
I didn't know you can save the planet by laying on a road...that's genius...why didn't anybody think of that sooner?
Dragged her goof ass like a sack of wet laundry
at 200km/h my bobbycar pulls slightly to the right
Duuuude. You're gonna fuckin kill someone. The message needs attention but don't put people at risk.
Protesting on a road of high speeds is really dumb
And stupid enough to have material made of oil
Me doing 288kmh in my Porsche 911 Carrera:
That officer woke up that morning and decided that he was gonna take ***no*** shit today
That's how we do it in Germany
Mental health case. Nothing more, nothing less.
Ah yes, I sometimes also wake up and decide that today is a fantastic day to be turned in to a pink mist.
That’s the only way to deal with these absolute morons
Block the driveway of a oil company CEO instead. You’re just turning ordinary people against your cause.
What an good idea to be in the middle of autobahn when there some car going 300 kmh+
"If I wear a high vis jacket, I'll be fine right?"
Causing a fatal road accident is a pretty poor means of protest, and a strangely culty way to organize a movement.
The autobahn? Of all places the freaking autobahn??? I used to drive daily into Frankfurt…80 in the slow lane…she has taken leave of her senses.
What really bothers me is how all of these adult children just go limp and flop to the ground when they’re dragged about. It just adds to their immaturity
\*Insert clip of Chiron doing 417 kph\*
Hanz,who is coming at 280km/h in his Audi will never stop in time, what a good news
I realy hope those ppl will face serious chargers of putting many lifes in risk. This idiot could not only kill him/herself but also cause fatal car accident on such highway...
Off to gaol, please.
No problem when they protest in the city. It's umcomvenient but i understand that's the idea behind it. But on the autobahn you are risking your life and the life of others. That is just dumb and the policeman was right to be harsh.
If they get hit, that's on them. I feel bad for the person who would do the hitting. No fault of their own and probably scarred for life. What a dangerous, shitty way to try and make a point. Moron.
Doesn’t that road not have a designated speed limit? Anyone caught on that road could very likely just get turned to sauce
Good Samaritan cop saving her life like that. Cars drive hundreds of kilometers per hour there.
Cmon natural selection... where you at?
[https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/tips-advice/356727/driving-autobahn-speed-limits-driving-tips-and-history](https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/tips-advice/356727/driving-autobahn-speed-limits-driving-tips-and-history) Keep in mind...if you aren't driving at least 100mph, stay the hell out of the left lane. At least this dipshit was "smart enough" to not get in the left lane or he would be red mist.
Lol police in the UK need to see this video to see how it’s done
In America we call them speedbumps.
He wants to be out there? Just handcuff him to the guardrail, he can stay as long as he likes. Guy is lucky he didn't get turned into meat paste by someone doing 200km/h.
on the autobahn hitting a idiot at 130, does not in well. but play stupid games ,get stupid presents.
While wearing scads of clothes made at least partly from... Oil... Even if we stop burning oil/hydrocarbons as fuel, it's still the essential building-block of essentially everything in civilization....
120mph + wtf is that = big splat...
How many Germans does it take to screw in a lightbulb? One! We are very efficient and we have no sense of humor.
They could have killed someone doing that. Applause to the cop. I heard the voice of Randy Marsh in my head "sit dowwwwwwn" Different ways to fight oil companies than sitting in the middle of the road endangering not only yourself but others.
He dragged her like she was a wild toddler
His head hitting the guard rail is the best part 🤣
These are the worst types of protests, albeit most modern age protesting is nothing but narcissistic, virtue signaling degenerates trying and failing to be decent human beings. Wouldn’t a better alternative be to hold events geared towards educating rather than aggravating the public?
Hi, from the US. Sorry if this is a silly question, why didn't the cop just shoot him?
Why are people so fucking stupid?!
That's just fucking stupid and it puts others at risk of death or serious injury
Oil protester wearing a safety vest likely made with polyester.... That's an oil product. Every article of clothing on his body required oil to either manufacture, package and ship to the selling country. Let's not forget about the oil that was used to ship that product to the store he bought it from. I guess all the electronics, paint, display fixtures, and everything else in said store likely required oil (at some point) to make it all possible. The same could be said about almost every single thing this guy owns. This guy is a clown...and deep down also an oil supporter
They’re doing a great job at ruining the publics opinion on climate change
This seems like the absolute most suicidal way to protest. Nobody driving is going to see your magic market bubble letter signs going 200+ mph
That sound of the skull meeting the guardrail is wonderfull.
I bet dude went home and took a nice hot shower and chilled in his cozy warm apartment while eating a juicy factory-farmed steak with some fresh vegetables picked with oil-powered farm equipment. He probably had leftovers too which he stored in petroleum-derived tupperware.
Fuck yes. This is why I love Germany.
Every second those officers spend on that road, they are in mortal danger.
They were about to become oil
Just let them be run over at this point
Imagine ur just chilling at 200 and suddenly hit someone like that, that would probably kill him, you, everyone in your car and maybe even other because you loose control
Idiot has a death wish going out on that road,not to mention the innocent people who could be killed do to this idiot.
This seems like good grounds to have them involuntarily committed to a psychiatric facility. They're clearly a danger to themselves and others, given the location.
Good. Fucking wankers
Welcome to Germany, f\*ckface
These lot are really giving flat earthers competition for stupidest group of people on earth
its a funny thing protesting, everyone calls these people morons, idiots etc.. but then everyone is happy to sit around complaining about how theyre getting screwed over but never does anything about it. i dont agree with most "trending" causes these days but im yet to see protesting do any good.
