The Bad Staffelstein fire department is shocked by the behavior of some road users - and publishes haunting posts on Facebook. “None of us closes a road just for the fun of it – everything has a reason!” “Please stay in your vehicles and please do not come running to us to ask if or what happened.

You are putting yourself at risk of being hit or run over!’ “If you, as a road user, accept the road closure and don't discuss with us what makes sense or what doesn’t, you will help ensure that the road is cleared more quickly,” says the fire department. ‘You should just be happy that you are not in the situation that is causing you to be banned for your important work,’ writes one woman and another says: “It’s sad that you have to stop a post like this. That should actually go without saying. Also that the work here is done by voluntary citizens, for which many have neither the time nor the desire. That's why people don't make it more difficult."
