Troubled German Cyclists
A love sick 16-year-old girl was stopped by police in the north-eastern state of Mecklenburg Lower Pomerania after cycling more than 10 kilometres (six miles) on a motorway. The girl claimed to on her way to visit her boyfriend in hospital and she did not know that it was illegal to cycle on the motorway.
In a separate incident in Munich, police intervened when a 32-year-old was seen cycling around the city with her naked 18-month-old baby in the child seat in temperatures of just 11 degrees Celsius. The woman, a lawyer, told police officers the child had refused to let itself be dressed and that she was only respecting the child's wishes.
It's always advisable that you should follow the highway code in your country, always be sensible, use bike lights, a safety helmet and wear warm clothing especially as winter is upon us. I am such a hypocrite, but it's good advice, and I will learn to my consequence some day. (I don't wear a safety helmet as posted in previous posts).
