When the car becomes a status symbol! The Autoposer and his car!

Sports cars and other vehicles are converted and tuned with attention to detail. Anyone who invests so much money and time in their car wants their car to be seen and admired. But it becomes difficult when the behavior is negative and other people and the environment are bothered by it. This problem is often encountered with so-called autoposers. But what is an autoposer? And how do the police deal with it? What penalties do autoposers face? Would you like to find out more? Then you will find your answers to the questions in the following guide.

An autoposer, what is that?

  • These are motorists who draw attention to themselves with unpleasant noise from their vehicles. With this behavior you want to draw attention to yourself and your car. Most of the time (but by no means always) such vehicles have undergone extensive tuning and are intended to be put on display.

What problems arise from autoposing?

  • The biggest problem in such a situation are the residents. By loud noises and constant, as well as unfounded, driving in circles (sometimes with burnouts or short street races), the noise pollution increases sharply. In addition, the road traffic regulations (StVO) prohibit such behavior forbids. This makes autoposers punishable.

What are the penalties for Autoposer?

  • The StVO stipulates that Autoposer should at least 80 € have to pay. If the whole thing takes place in a town, they even have to come with them €100 penalty Expect if they are caught driving back and forth, bothering other people. For example, if you no longer have an operating license for the car because of illegal tuning and you ensure that road safety is impaired, you will be required to pay a fine 90 € amounts to.

How can an autoposer be defined?

  • Autoposers are people who try to draw attention to themselves through their cars. These cars are very often pimped up by tuning or at least already powerfully motorized ex works and as loud as possible (Sports cars, RS/M/AMG vehicles etc.). And the posing does not take place in a quiet place for the photo show. Instead, the main area for autoposers is usually the most frequented one Downtown. They drive the same laps over and over again and intentionally provoke by means of noise pollution (also through music) and unnecessary driving manoeuvres. With the artificially created noise, the autoposers try to grab the attention of the surrounding passers-by. For this purpose, so-called special commissions have already been set up by the authorities at various locations.

What does Autoposer expect if they get caught?

  • Various rules are set out in the StVO to ensure that public road traffic runs smoothly. The basic rules of § 1 StVO state that it should be avoidedto annoy other road users. If the principle is not adhered to, the vehicle driver will face sanctions. The same applies to autoposers as well. You can orientate yourself on the facts of the catalog of fines. Such are among others: Noise pollution that could have been avoided / unnecessary back-and-forth driving / driving illegally tuned vehicles that no longer have an operating permit

But not only the facts listed above are the reason why autoposers are severely sanctioned. Also, many criminal charges are filed for drug abuse, alcohol abuse, speeding and the aforementioned auto racing. So there are not only light sanctions, but also criminal consequences for autoposers. Here you can not only expect a fine, but also have to be punished by one fine up to imprisonment go out. In addition, illegally tuned cars may be taken off the road and shut down according to the existing sanctions from the catalog of fines.
