German police responding / motorbike ignores roadblock / ambulance responding
A traffic safety unit from the Bavarian State Police Highway Patrol station Rosenheim is responding to debris on eastbound lanes of higwhay 8 after a tire blew up on a semi truck. The police van is heading westbound first, turns around at the next exit and then performs a traffic break, slowing down all following traffic. If necessary they'll move across all lanes, with emergency lights activated and the rear-facing message board reading "do not pass". Just before coming to a full stop both police officers open the doors to indicate traffic that they will stop now.
Yes the police officers simply throw all the stuff either to the median or into the grass, they're only there to quickly remove the hazard and not actual clean-up. The Highway Maintenance Authority will pick up all debris alongside the highway on their routine road check.
While removing the debris a craftsman standing in first line offered his help with some kind of leaf blower or similar, cool guy.
While still there a motorbiker tried to sneak past the traffic jam driving down the breakdown lane. The police officer spotted him immediately and he definetly wasn't happy, I guess he had some clear words for the bike rider. Makes it even more surprising that he then simply ignores the roadblock, passes the police van and proceeds, as if it wasn't clear enough that he's supposed to wait. That's just an unnecessary hazard for the other officer which might not hear the approaching motorbike, and also the officer might throw some stuff to the side in the moment the motorbike passes by; Just stupid!
Right before the eastbound lanes are cleared an ALS Emergency Ambulance from the Bavarian Red Cross Rosenheim County, based at the EMS station in Feldkirchen, is heading westbound. Seems like they got another EMS call while returning from the hospital
