Police in Mörfelden-Walldorf/Weiterstadt, Germany, prohibited subsequent demonstrations twice.

In an incident that took place on the A5 near Mörfelden-Walldorf on August 26, a vehicle combination transporting a brand-new electric tractor unit was halted by the South Hessian State Police.

According to the South Hessian State Police, the load distribution was inadequate, causing the tractor unit's axle loads and total weight to exceed the limits. As a result, the vehicle was overloaded by 14 percent, and the load securing did not meet any valid regulations.

The vehicle combination, which was supposed to transport the electric tractor unit to the Netherlands, was also found to lack a valid permit for the entire route to Belgium.

At approximately 12:30 PM, the police stopped another heavy goods vehicle carrying a bucket loader on the A5 near Weiterstadt. The 60-year-old driver was prohibited from continuing his journey by the police. No escort vehicle was present for rear security.

The South Hessian State Police initiated a profit-taking measure, requiring the entrepreneur to pay 2500 euros in advance. Fines and points in Flensburg are still pending for the driver, the responsible loader, and the responsible person from the forwarding agency.

It is important to note that the entrepreneur eligible for the two special transports controlled by the Southern Hessian State Police Headquarters is not specified in the provided information. The electric tractor unit had to be transferred to a suitable vehicle before continuing its journey.

The South Hessian State Police reminds all transport companies of the importance of adhering to weight and load regulations to ensure the safety of all road users.
