Barbara Schöneberger to Surrender Driver’s License for Four Weeks

She has four months to hand in her licence which lets her pick a one‑month suspension likely to fall after Christmas to reduce work disruption.

Overview

  • The presenter told RTL’s 'Exclusiv' on the Goldenes Lenkrad red carpet that she must give up her driver’s licence for four weeks after a speeding violation.
  • She retains an administrative option to choose when the one‑month ban begins within a four‑month window and says she is searching for the weeks that will cause the least disruption.
  • Schöneberger described herself as a very fast driver but rejected the label “raser” and said she accepts responsibility for the offence.
  • Reports say she did not disclose when or where the specific offence occurred and no further details about the ticket have been published.
  • Under Germany’s Flensburg licensing system offenders can sometimes delay handing in their licence and the flexibility will let Schöneberger plan around studio work, travel and events.
