Raster on Harley: driving without a driver's license and forgery of documents!

Hermann-Löns-Weg, 25462 Rellingen, Deutschland - on June 19, 2025, around 3:00 p.m., the Rellingen police carried out an extensive speed control on Hermann-Löns-Weg. The officers caught a 35-year-old driver from Hamburg, who was traveling too quickly with his Harley Davidson, who was equipped with a Neumünsteran license. At a speed of 87 km/h, he shaved the permissible maximum speed of 30 km/h by a whopping 57 km/h.

The driver presented a Polish driver's license at the check, which, however, soon got into the focus of the officials. During the first review, it was obvious that the driver's license might be fake. Such suspicions inevitably mean that the driver now has to answer for suspected driving without a license and forgery of documents. Here he not only threatens high fines of around 600 euros, but also a two -month driving ban.

forgery of documents in road traffic

forgery of documents is anything but a cavalier offense, rather it is a criminal act that is defined in accordance with § 267 StGB. This includes not only the production or change of fake documents, but also their use. A driver's license or a car certificate are considered documents whose falsification or manipulation can lead to severe legal consequences. According to the Bussgeld catalog, punishments from fines to imprisonment from up to five years can be imposed.

Especially in road traffic, it is crucial that all documents are real and genuine. Wrong environmental badges or manipulated license plates also belong in the forgery of documents and are punishable. In this case, attaching a wrong license plate - be it by losing weight from another vehicle or attaching a not officially issued license plate - could also lead to criminal prosecution, since the attachment of undesirable license plates in road traffic is a serious matter.

consequences for those affected

The overview of possible punishments in forgery of documents in road traffic shows that these offenses are taken seriously. In addition to the fines and driving bans already mentioned, there are also entries in the Flensburg driving suitability register.

  • Fine between 600 EUR and more
  • driving ban of up to two months
  • imprisonment for up to five years in serious cases

This example from Rellingen makes it clear how important it is to pay attention to the authenticity of driving license and license plates in road traffic. Because as you can see, a small (or big) mistake on two wheels can quickly become a fixed matter - with far -reaching consequences for the driver.
