Messungen im Strassenverkehr

When defending in traffic law administrative offense proceedings, you must primarily deal with measurement methods. This applies not only to speeding and distance violations but also to red light offenses and driving under the influence (§ 24a StVG). These are the "big four," which are among the most frequently committed traffic offenses and are of significant importance to the client due to their far-reaching consequences (e.g., driving bans). The discussions in the work "Measurements in Road Traffic" do not only focus on the relevant substantive legal areas of these traffic violations; rather, the emphasis is particularly on the presentation and explanation of technical questions. The theoretical discussions on the individual measurement methods are vividly complemented by over 500 (original) images, sketches, and checklists, making the work a practical aid for judges and experts alike. The work is rounded off with discussions on commercial passenger and freight transport (e.g., load securing, weighing of road vehicles).

What does the 6th edition offer?

Additionally, many new illustrations with descriptions of the current legal situation have been added. Also newly and thoroughly presented are:
• the measuring device VKS 4.5 from Vidit
