From the article: *Large SUVs were particularly affected. According to the police, notes were attached to the cars indicating that they were harmful to the climate. The tyres were not punctured, but merely deflated. The cars were parked in the area between the S-Bahn line and Elbchaussee around Kanzleistraße. *
Personally, I like this protest way more than glueing themselves to the streets, causing traffic jams where cars burn gasoline for hours and ambulances / firefighters / police gets stuck, putting innocent life in danger.
The article is in German. Warning: this link leads to google translate.
Sounds like a great time for those tires that don’t need air to become popular
Don’t think any major maker is ready to sell those yet, last I checked. Would be much cheaper to get sth like these https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0965DBT57/
This post made me look into it again today. Michelin is claiming they are going to be selling to businesses in areas with rough roads by mid 2024, with business everywhere coming some time after that.
Yeah, I tried to find any that are actually available, but all I found were golf cart tires in non-pneumatic.
