Who Said Germans Always Drive Too Fast? At the wheel of his incredible team, an old agricultural tractor pulling a caravan, a German tourist caught the eye of the gendarmes of the Marne. The individual, whose convoy can reach 23 km / h at full power, was intercepted this weekend on national road 4, one of the French roads with a dangerous reputation.
It was the gendarmes of the Vitry-le-François motorized brigade who controlled the tourist on a mop at the wheel of a magnificently restored Deutz tractor. The interception took place between the municipalities of Soudé and Coole (we invent nothing) south of Châlons-en-Champagne.
Journey to Rocamadour and Mont-Saint-Michel
The journey of this tourist from another time began on June 19. Date on which the German pensioner had left his country to join Rocamadour, then Mont-Saint-Michel before returning to Germany ... via the Marne.
A travel habit in slow life modewhich is not a first for him, as evidenced by the list of destinations listed at the back of the caravan, specify the gendarmes.
Finally, the soldiers checked the correct operation of the orange rotating beacons of the tractor and the caravan, the pilot's documents. Then they escorted him to the commune of Coole so that he was safe to finish his journey quietly on small roads.
