Trunk-bound ponies remain (extremely) untamed - Trunk containing a pony becomes even more astonishing
In an unusual turn of events, a police patrol in Alsdorf near Aachen stopped a pink-painted car on Monday, revealing a surprising passenger in the trunk - a pony.
Officers, who frequently encounter animals being transported in the interior of cars, were less than pleased with the situation. The authorities have been known to issue fines for such incidents, and in this case, a penalty notice was issued to the woman driving the car.
However, she refused to pay the fine during the traffic stop. The woman, who saw no wrongdoing, was traveling with the pony in the trunk. The pony, it seemed, was quite comfortable, standing on the folded backseat on a rug, possibly due to a nearby bucket of feed or its familiarity with car rides in the trunk.
Despite her initial unwillingness to accept that transporting a pony in the car trunk is dangerous, the woman was prohibited from continuing her journey. The penalties for such transport may include prohibition from continuing the journey, as stated by the authorities.
It's worth noting that this incident is not exclusive to the pink-painted car near Alsdorf. Officers often encounter animals, ranging from fluffy small animals to dangerous and highly toxic specimens, being transported in less than ideal conditions. Examples of such incidents can be found in photo galleries from various sources.
Interestingly, the pony's owner, according to social media comments, frequently travels with the pony in the trunk regionally. The location of the incident was not specified beyond being near Aachen.
On September 5th, the Pferdefahrt (horse carriage drive) in Alsdorf near Aachen was conducted at Schleibacher Hof from September 5 to 7. However, the specific organizer or person conducting it is not explicitly stated in the available information. The event is mentioned in a horse-related publication "Rheinlands Reiter - Pferde".
The authorities are reminding everyone to ensure the safety and comfort of animals during transportation. It's essential to remember that animals should be transported in suitable conditions to maintain their wellbeing and safety.
