I posted the following in the Spanish A-Frame thread. The replies seemed to discuss the merits of an A - Frame rather than the possible consequences of using one whilst traveling through Germany.

I have re-posted here so the importance is not lost on the people planning to travel through Germany using an A-Frame


Morning,
I was recently reading a German car magazine, i think it was Autobild from sometime in September. There was an article about the use of toads in Germany - mainly by British and Dutch drivers.
The Transport minister, Ramsauer is in the process of having them banned and police will tell drivers they can only continue their journey if the toad is driven under its own steam.

The legal situation is defined by 'Schleppen' and Abschleppen' - towing and recovery. Apparently it is illegal in Germany to tow a fully functional vehicle in this way without permission from the department of Transport.

I have briefly looked at some forums. Some German motorhomers are intrigued by the use of toads in other countries and the question has been asked "why are the British and Dutch allowed to use toads in our country and we can't ? ".

Regards,
Mark

An important issue no doubt for toads.

Surely you mean, "it's up to them, as our greater god..." or so they like to think of themselves.

Whether it is to our greater good... is questionable!
