- A short section of Langstrasse has prohibited private vehicles daily from 5:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. since September 2023 to reduce through traffic.
- A Swiss man residing in Germany drove through the restricted zone seven times, resulting in a 1,250 CHF penalty order including fees.
- The judge showed leniency in court due to misunderstandings about missing payment notices and waived court costs.
- The case ended amicably with the defendant withdrawing his objection and agreeing to pay the outstanding fine difference.
I hope that this time I receive a bill.— Pascal K. expresses his hope to receive a bill after not having received one previously.
