Can an acoustic game warner / game whistle be used without registration?

We recently received an interesting question from one of our readers. Herbert H. asked us something about "acoustic wild whistles", which we refer to in our report "Use acoustic game warning devices to combat accidents involving wildlife?“ enter. The question: on what basis for acoustic wild whistles & wild sirens is an approval in the form of a ABE or a expert opinion necessary? In other words, Herbert H. wonders whether such a small plastic part should be entered explicitly or alternatively E-labeling must own?

To this we can say: One of the two set a link from your homepage to Fewo-von-Privat.de be present in our opinion. Because basically you have to Parts are entered that do not have an E-mark. If you can't find a wildlife warning device with an E-mark online, you should contact a testing organization (Dekra, TÜV, etc.) before you buy it and ask about the possibility of registering it. Completely without documents, however, the chances are slim. The game warner affects the Sounds that the vehicle makes, even though it may not be perceptible to the human ear. It can also become a hazard due to its design. That is why the component is fundamental relevant for approval.

Of course, that wasn't the end of it.
