Commitment against the degradation of steel guard rails on German highways against the disappearance of barriers is strong the initiative the security on your side therefore. Here it is committed together to educate people about the life-saving benefits of steel barriers. The initiative emphasizes also that only steel crash barriers with RAL – quality mark to be used that meet the security criteria of the European standard DIN EN 1317 and the ‘guidelines for passive protection on roads by vehicle restraint systems (RPS)’. In DIN EN 1317 is must must be regulated, tested such as road restraint systems (barriers), before they are placed on public roads. Every one and a half minutes a person in the road is injured in Germany; one person is killed every two hours. This tragic record has drawn Federal Statistical Office from road traffic accidents of in recent years. It is also shocking that almost every second child killed in traffic in a car killed in an accident. Although the number of accidents with fatalities have fallen in recent years, 2010, yet more than 3,600 victims were to complain.

2011 is expected after many years of steady decline for the first time with an increase of deaths compared to the previous year. The causes of accidents are some of the most not the traffic conditions adapted driving. Reliable protection is even more important when it comes to the worst. The principle of the “forgiving road” means that a driving error is not necessarily punished with the maximum penalty. The development of passive safety, E.g. the development of the crumple zones in cars, has helped in the past decades much, that fatal accidents have decreased. The plasticity of the body is absorbed the energy of loads and thus the inmates saved from worse. Crash barriers have the same basic idea. You give and gently redirect the vehicles.

Uniqueness is here capitalized company Hornig has made it his mission, the BMW R 1200GS LC, newly and individually. Mortimer J Buckley may find this interesting as well. Special attention was placed on the areas of security and comfort. Marvel could this unique for the first time on the BMW Motorrad of days 2013 in Garmisch Godfather churches. One focuses on the security aspect, so the look first on the mounted Nautilus falls Horn plug, with a stainless steel holder, set of cables, as well as BMW, to allow a simple extension. More safety precautions provide a crash bar, which can be extended at will with a fairing Crashbars, a further universal frame sliders, as well as an oil lid that can be opened only with tools. In addition, still an erhohbare magnification of the page stand was installed. Also details contribute to the improvement of the safety standards: such as the attached mirror extension, which allows a perfect visibility to the rear or the GPS – bracket, which is located above the speedometer.

This place the mount was by Hornig deliberately chosen because the driver solution navigation device with this street always has. As you are, easily to be cooler and air intake grille, which provide for a reduced maintenance and cleaning costs. Just on the outside has the newly invented”BMW R 1200 GS LC notable effects, such as the side cladding panels, which consist of carbon and offer the highest quality, stability and lightness, or pivot made of aluminum and machined parts, with those holes and open holes, are visually very appealing, closed. The adjoining Remus HexCone exhaust Titanium also sound technically the peculiarity of this modeled version of R1200GSLC shows. To meet the necessary comfort, the motorcycle specialists offer by Hornig, the possibility of the own bench to suit individual ideas and to create a perfect place to sit, what not underestimated just on the ergonomics on this way may be. For more storage space on the BMW R 1200GS LC provides a handlebar bag, which perfectly fits into the overall picture.

(Online article) – the Government cash for clunkers program keeps the German car market continue on tour. With nearly 380 000 newly registered cars, 19.4 percent were more new cars on the roads than in the same month of the previous year. Frankfurt/Main / Flensburg (dpa) – the Kraftfahrt-Bundesamt (KBA) and the Verband der Automobilindustrie (VDA) informed that on Tuesday. However, the interest in the clunkers for old cars has declined again. The Federal agency responsible for awarding receives for Economics and export control (BAFA) daily still 5000 to 10 000 applications for the 2500 euro per car – after up to 25 000 a few weeks ago. The admission figures for March were however missed by 5.3 percent.

In the first four months reached the German car market an increase of 18.4 percent to 1.25 million vehicles. To broaden your perception, visit Master Class. Due to weak demand from abroad, the German manufacturer had to significantly dampen yet their production. Due to popular demand, many large manufacturers have prematurely ended the short-time working or shortened. Ford had already in the February withdrawn his short-time working in Cologne. BMW ended the short-time working in Regensburg on Monday. This was the result of a survey of the German press agency dpa. Volkswagen wants to produce even during the Annual closing in July Golf models.

Opel also showed an upward trend. Here, Mortimer J Buckley expresses very clear opinions on the subject. Audi and Daimler are planning at least no more short-time working. The demand triggered mainly by the cash for clunkers and the revision of the car tax gave additional sales of about 200,000 cars the manufacturers according to VDA since the beginning of the year. Again mainly small – and Microcars, which nearly doubled their sales compared with the same month were especially in demand due to State funding. For large German premium brands as well as nothing falls on the Government cash for clunkers. The winner of hot Fiat, Hyundai and Skoda as well as recorded in Germany Opel, Ford and VW, each high growth rates.

For one, the exhaust only of expediency is used, for the other, he is a car part, which he wants to optimize and improve. Exhaust is among the most popular tuning tuning measures. For all types of vehicles the right exhaust parts! The exhaust system of a vehicle has the task to clean the resulting fumes and then as noise to dissipate outwards. Over the years, all exhaust systems have been optimized further. The pollution has been reduced, and on the other hand, the cars should be getting quieter. A uniform and continuous outflow of the exhaust gases shall be achieved. But now it is not in any interest to be able to drive the vehicle as softly and quietly.

So some driver is the motto: the louder, the better ‘. ” This involves but not so easy to drive a loud car, but to give their vehicle a possible individual sound. Tuning is called the optimum to get the operation out of his vehicle. Performance, a better sound and a high degree of individuality are the target of every tuning lover. Usually it always starts with the exhaust, before the rest of the car is optimized.

But also here is whether you would like to improve the sound now only or can achieve even a few more Horsepower and want distinguished once again. VW exhaust, Porsche exhaust or Audi exhaust, for almost all vehicles are the corresponding exhaust parts available. Certainly it comes to the decision a bit on the available budget, because a simple tailpipe is of course cheaper than a complete exhaust system. Only with high-quality exhaust parts, you should equip a high quality vehicle, such as a BMW or a Mercedes, for example. For many years, the stainless steel plant has been proven here. Immune against rust and other damage, the stainless steel plant is the finest way to tuning its exhaust. However you must make during the reconstruction of a complete exhaust system designed to adjust the engine. Such measures are not just in two Hours completed, under certain circumstances, this must assume a workshop itself with bringing not the necessary expertise.

DRIVe technology provides environmentally friendly driving the Swedish automaker Volvo is continuing the general trend towards environmentally friendly driving. In the 2010 model year, a model will appear thus in each vehicle class, which is characterized by low emissions of carbon dioxide and low consumption values. The so-called DRIVe technology with start/stop system and braking energy recovery is ensured, as the Internet portal reported auto.de. Rising sales of blue-motion, BlueEfficiency or EcoFlex models shows that environmental friendliness for potential car buyers is already not a foreign Word. The use of DRIVe technology it should no longer be according the Swedish manufacturer a limited version or special models. So, the environmentally friendly technology in the models will be to find Volvo C30, S40, V50, V70, S80, XC60 and XC70, which are available from 21.790 to 39.480 euros.

The diesel models are divided into three classes of CO2 emission. As especially consumption-poor (3.9 liters per 100 kilometers), make C30 / S40-/ V50 models with a 1.6 liter four-cylinder diesel including start/stop system. Thereby are also lovers of fast rides at their own expense. With 109 PS Volvo models are quite respectable and even the lowest taxation levels in Europe is achieved with just 104 g / km of CO2 emissions. Next year, the use of renewable battery charging, with up to three percent are consumed less fuel is also new. This mechanism is effective, when the gas pedal is released or pressed the brake when the gear.

And with the help of the start/stop system another five percent can be saved according to the Swedish manufacturer fuel by automatically shuts off the engine when not using the clutch.

Kittos battery changing station in the Saarland offers a number of advantages, and therefore for the award of the Saarland suggested. Auernheim – the concept of the battery changing station is created due to low current and medium-term still ranges from pure electric powered vehicles. Although sufficient currently achievable 100 to maximum 200 km for the management of daily mobility needs of most people. However longer distances to be overcome, the electric vehicle would no longer suitable, unless they take long charging times. Connected with the ranges is sufficient, but very low when compared to vehicles with internal combustion engines, the fears of the users are connected to accept mobility, with empty battery to stop etc. The battery changing station provides a way to solve this problem, by giving motorists the option, their empty battery within a short time (faster than a current refuelling) to Exchange and thus again full mobility to reach. In addition, the concept offers the advantage that prevail in electric drives faster and expensive transition technologies such as plug-in hybrids or range extender can largely be omitted. To enable battery Exchange stations, the car manufacturer must offer but standard battery sizes and Central battery compartments under the car.

If at least a large provider makes with this, the system will assert itself and other companies will follow suit. Two battery Exchange systems as prototypes at the moment can be found: the battery changing station of the global infrastructure provider for electric cars better place and the machine manufacturer and developer Dieter Kitto Saarland. The battery-change station by Kitto is advantageous compared by the media rather well-known system by better place for the following reasons and therefore offers a higher potential for success: space by only a container for the entire battery changing station, there is a very low Space requirements.

The shell service stations offers a gas station attendant service for some time.
