Overview
- Riding instructor Martina Scherrer sent her 20-year-old mare past a mobile speed camera to see if it would react.
- A warning vest and leg reflectors did not trigger the device, but a large, highly reflective saddle cloth set it off.
- A Freiburg city spokesperson confirmed the horse was recorded by the camera during the test.
- No notice has been issued to the rider, and authorities say no citation or fine is expected in this case.
- The street outside the riding school carries a 10 km/h limit that local drivers and cyclists reportedly often ignore, with the episode first reported by Badische Zeitung and later by BILD.
