    This muppet was caught on camera in a right-hand drive car doing 155km/h in a 120 zone (more than once, I think). 50€ fine and three points on his license if they catch him...

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    It's not just the muppets either. The lads from Sesame Street have been done for dangerous driving.

    The jist of it is, a brit tourist placed the puppet in the passenger seat of his british Audi (driver seat in germany) and deliberately speeds past the camera and appears as the driver in the photo, to wind up the police

    it reads

    Police looks for Sesamstrassen “Ernie”
    the police in Bayreuth asks for your assistance! “Ernie” from the Sesamstrasse was gotten as traffic “Grobi”. With 155 km/h the doll on the A9 at the Bindlacher mountain one flashed. Only 120 km/h were permitted. after the Raser. It 50 euro penalty and 3 points in the traffic CSU the card index in Flensburg threaten.

    The photo is already somewhat older - it originated in to 08.08.2008 at 11.11 o'clock - however Ernie frequently when to fast driving was photographed. Because it concerns an English car, the actual driver sits right and Ernie left. Now the police in Bayreuth looks for the Raser. It 50 euro penalty and 3 points in the traffic CSU the card index in Flensburg threaten.

    'very' loosely translated by this interpreter...:D

    Just out of German translation class, thought i'd give it a bash.

    "Police seek Sesamestreet's Ernie"
    The Police in Bayreuth require your assistance! "Ernie" from Sesamestreet has been nabbed committing traffic offences. The Puppet was photographed on the A9 near Bindlacher Berg, travelling at 155km/h in an area with a speed limit of 120km/h.

    Admitedly, this photo is a bit older, it was taken on the 08.08.2008 at 11.11am, however Ernie has since been photographed more often driving too quickly. The car, being an English one, means that the driver sits on the right hand side and Ernie on the left. Now the police in Bayreuth are searching for the speeding driver. He is being threatened with a €50 on the spot fine and 3 points against him in the Traffic Violators Index in Flensberg.
