Kiefersfelden: Free voters and their anger about the Inntal autobahn – Bavaria
Of course, an Old Testament “an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth” is hardly ever enough. then there is already in the Old Testament – depending on the passage and translation – “hand for hand” and “foot for foot”. Furthermore, Old Testament lovers will find that the one eye and one tooth was a real step forward compared to those excesses of revenge in which one eye was exchanged for five or ten eyes plus numerous teeth.
Unfortunately, there is nothing in the Old Testament about “traffic jam after traffic jam”. But what does the Bible know about Bavaria, Tyrol and these constant truck block clearances on the Inntal autobahn?
But the free voters in the district of Rosenheim already know about it, and instead of turning the other cheek, as is prominently demanded in the New Testament, they wanted to get even with the Tyroleans because of this block processing, which in Bavaria often involves a truck Traffic jams far beyond the Inntal triangle result. So why not close the right lane yourself, the Free Voters ask themselves. According to their calculations, four curfew hours at Kiefersfelden would have been enough for the trucks to back up over there to Innsbruck, just for a demonstration.
All of this should have taken place on a Saturday, but there is a ban on truck driving in Tyrol at the weekend. It would have been far better to do it on a Friday, but the Bavarian authorities are not playing along. And when the laws are interpreted, such a blockade is really not permissible, admits the Rosenheim FW district councilor Sepp Lausch. But the posters are printed, which is why the Free Voters now want to drive to Innsbruck themselves to demonstrate to the Tyrolean governor. And on the return journey you will hopefully not be stuck in traffic because of the German border controls.
By the way, the Old Testament already knows border controls: They should say “Shibboleth”, the Gileadites are said to have asked the border crossers at a ford of the Jordan. Anyone who wasn’t dialect-savvy and stood out as an Ephraimite crossed the Jordan in a completely different way. But what exactly this shibbolet belonged to is unknown in Kiefersfelden, in Kufstein and in the entire Schengen area.
