In the car: When transporting the tree inside the vehicle, it should be securely lashed and, if possible, stored across the direction of travel. “It is important that drivers can still see well – a clear view to the front and to the side or into the rear-view mirror must be possible,” warns the lawyer. “If the rear window is covered, at least a good view through the two side mirrors must be possible.” The handbrake, gear lever and controls must be easy to operate. If the tailgate remains open during transport, make sure that the taillights and indicators remain visible and that the license plate is legible. In any case, the tailgate should be tensioned downwards, preferably also with textile tensioning straps.
