Bremen: Drivers flashed through traffic with false blue lights!

in Bremen-Vahr, more precisely on the federal highway 27, an incident causes a sensation that extends to the heart of traffic safety. On Tuesday, July 8, 2025, at 11 a.m., a 34-year-old Bremer carried out an illegal experiment that not only put his own security in danger, but also the lives of other road users. The man had assembled a self-attached blue light on his vehicle and drove over the motorway at a high pace to get through the traffic quickly, as news.de.

Witnesses aroused alarmed when they watched the dark Audi with blue lights on. A veritable danger, because both police and emergency vehicles have access to such light signals- but not impatient drivers. The police's investigation promptly promptly raised when it turned out that the flashing light was not that of a legitimate emergency vehicle. The driver had installed an LED blue light front flash with suction cups on the windshield and did not seem to be aware of any guilt.

The police stopped the Audi at the "Industrial ports" junction. There the 34-year-old refused to give a meaningful explanation. The blue light has been ensured and the driver is now faced with serious criminal consequences. He threatens criminal charges for measurement and coercion in road traffic. The legal basis explains that the legal basis explains if someone pretends to be a public office as the carrier and acts unauthorized. This legal standard is anchored in § 132 StGB, as Bussgeldkatalog.org explained.

The consequences for the 34-year-old can be serious. In the event of repeated offenses, he threatens fines or even imprisonment of up to two years. The case is given special severity from the use of a blue light, because only the police and regulatory office are authorized to take such measures. An example from the case law shows that unauthorized driving with flashing lights has already led to convictions, as the Celle Higher Regional Court demonstrated, which condemned a driver for 30 daily rates.

legal background

Why are such incidents so serious? The preservation of the office undermines trust in state authorities and can result in considerable legal consequences. The unauthorized interference into the duties of the public service is therefore strictly punished by the judiciary, explains [specialistwalt.de] (https://www.fachlanwalt.de/magazin/strafrecht/amts- The legal protection against such occurrences is strengthened by the possibility of asserting claims for damages in the forgiveness.
