............ SPIEGEL ONLINE: But on the ring can run wild?
Linden: already in a race. But many do not realize is that the Nordschleife is a big playing field but, but nevertheless apply to the rules. These are public highways.
During the tourist trips you have to respect the highway code. It must not be overtaken on the right, security clearances must be kept, there are even stopping restrictions and speed limits . Only the speed limit is repealed because the route is signed as 'dual carriageway'.
SPIEGEL ONLINE: So you have to count on the Nordschleife with police checks?
Linden: In principle, yes. Earlier had where we actually sometimes monitored by helicopter transport. For the Nordschleife is a dangerous place. There, experienced professionals and beginners, motorcycles, cars and even buses in between. You have to be very concentrated, so that nothing happens. While there is no regular police checks, but we pay with the Nürburgring that the 'house rules ' is maintained ............
