Dieser “illegale” Trick kann dein Leben retten

Honking while overtaking – is that forbidden? Many motorcyclists think so, but Section 16 of the German Road Traffic Regulations (StVO) actually permits this short signal outside of built-up areas. We clarify what the traffic regulations really say, why a short honk can be a matter of life and death for us bikers, and where the line between honking and harassment lies. Also: Why completely different rules apply in Austria and Switzerland – and how honking on an Alpine tour can cost up to €726. 🏍️ Read the corresponding article on Motorcycles.News: 👉 Helly No1 Bikereyes* — Motorcycle goggles made in Germany.
