Drivers reflective vests may not be changed

Transport Ministry reassures the driver that you do not have to change older reflective vests for new manufactured according to new European standards. With that, the older models are still acceptable, but oppose some manufacturer’s reflective vests.

 

According to company owner DAS already older vests do not match the decree of the Ministry of Transport. “The warning vest according to the old standard 471 already exists under the law, because it is canceled and cannot be used as a security feature,” says Damsel.

 

This interpretation, however, strongly protested the Ministry of Transport. According to Minister Dan Movement for YES correspond to the old safety vest all technical and safety requirements and motorists clearly calms.

 

“No one will have to buy anything new. Of the Decree does not, it would have to conduct change. Correspond qualitatively as well as the old ones, “he says.

According to the Insurance Association spokesman Ales not insurance in case of accidents addressed if the subscriber used an older or newer vest.

“I think it would be unable to prove that it could have some effect and those vests are visually more or less the same,” added the spokesman.

People also there are no use for elderly reflective fabric vests any sanctions from the police.

The inspection sticker of safety vest

The “GTÜ automotive testing” headquartered in Jock is a service-oriented company for vehicle tests of all kinds. The two graduate engineers Rolf and Joachim Steer in safety vest are experienced test engineers.

Insights into the new brewery with wearing a reflective vest

The new Pauline brewery in Longwise is still a large construction site, but the heart of the plant is already being brewed. And before the first brew is ready, Pauline plans an extension.

 

The powerful, silvery stainless steel tanks are still empty, but in the building next door the first mash pans are already warming up, and the diagrams and measured values light up on the computer screens. “Last week we put our new brew house into operation,” reports Pauline spokeswoman Birgit in reflective vest. The first batch Pauline from Longwise, the first Christian and his coworkers now brew is to be filled ceremoniously on 15 September. However, it will not come into the trade, but will be given away to guests and business partners.

 

Larger production volumes would not be manageable anyway: Everywhere craftsmen still work in warning safety vests: on the valve matrix, the pipe work in which the beer is to flow from the pressure tanks to the filling plants, as well as in the 28,000- And empties logistics. Here the straightforward forklift trucks are programmed, which are fully automatic boxes, bottles, bottle caps and labels to the exact second and pick up. Outside the area, construction machines instead of beer pots are still running on untapped surfaces.

 

But that will change quickly. Train to train, brewery for brewery, production is to be relocated from Au to Longwise in the next months. In the middle of 2016, according to Zachery, the brewery is to run completely at the new location.

Pauline needs the capacity of the new brewery urgently

 

The time is right, because the capacity of the new, ultra-modern brewery is urgently needed. The shops run well. It is so good that Pauline CEO Andreas Steinhart uses an extension option, which he secured with a notarized contract already before the foundation stone last year: A well four hectare property, which in the southeast adjoins the operational area.

 

The space requirement has to do with a Bavarian peculiarity, as brewery speaker Birgit Zachery explains: “In Bavaria, it is particularly widespread that the breweries still supply the restaurants themselves.” Pauline and his subsidiary Interring: The Company are doing what other wholesalers do 117 employees assemble the containers delivered by the brewery and distribute them to the restaurants with a fleet of 58 trucks. Once this was done, currently the handling center is in Graveling. But there the rental agreement runs out, as Zachery reports. Therefore Interring is now to get a new home right next to the brewery. A logical step, as Zachery says. Instead of trucking and transporting beer trucks and containers from the brewery to Interring as before, they were able to load interring there and bring them back into the city, Interring could now be loaded directly from the production site.

 

In addition to the new Interring branch, Pauline plans to build a high-rack warehouse on the site: 7000 square meters, up to 30 meters high, two meters higher than the highest building sections of the brewery. When this camp is built, is still open. But what’s going to happen is: Beer, in all the vessels and containers that Pauline has in the program, as Zachery explains.

 

The keyword “traffic”, however, the alarm bells shriek in the district committee. “It is not yet clear how much of our roads are burdened by the brewery,” says Friedrich. It was only when the brewery was in operation and the first experiences were available that it was possible to make a meaningful decision on enlargement. The district committee is in principle in agreement with the plans, but wants to see the real figures of traffic “from the city administration,” said BA member Schrader (CSU). Already, the building structure with reflective material of the brewery represents a widely visible and prominent point at the motorway crossroads, says the BA. The logistics warehouse is ultimately a supplement. However, towards the committee wants lush greenery. “It should also be examined that the new high-rack warehouse will not be higher than the brewery,” says Schrader.

You darkened a room lit with a flashlight to the west and clarified the children so vividly the reflective effect of the strip. The reflective vests are to be equipped by their words with the logo of the municipal nursery and the name of his young visitors.

They walked down the road, had no glare, they were all dressed in black. I have not had a chance to see them before. The road was winding, and I saw these people only when I went behind the next turn.
