ÄndG zum StVG wird es dem Fahrer eines hoch- oder vollautomatisierten Fahrzeugs erstmalig gestattet, sich vom Verkehrsgeschehen ab- und fahrfremden Nebentätigkeiten zuzuwenden.

Dabei werden die neu eingeführten und zum großen Teil mit unbestimmten Rechtsbegriffen versehenen Vorschriften präzisiert und interpretiert, wodurch diese in der Praxis handhabbar werden.

The photos in this edition are black and white. Road racing's enduring legacy is revealed and celebrated as author Martin Rudow recounts the sport's glorious past while visiting more than 16 classic tracks that are now defunct across North America.Riverside International Raceway, Bridgehampton Race Circuit, Ontario Motor Speedway, Continental Divide Raceway, and many others were once major race venues that have since closed. The great race teams, legendary drivers, classic racing series that visited the tracks, and cars that turned laps are brought into full focus by Rudow, a road racer and road racing expert. The exploits of Chaparral, McLaren, Bud Moore, Lotus, Penske, and other race teams as well as racing greats Mario Andretti, Parnelli Jones, Jim Hall, A. J. Foyt, Al Unser, Jim Clark, and Dan Gurney are covered. Rudow also digs beneath the surface to reveal the story behind the story. The visionaries and businessmen who saw potential and risked capital to build these palaces of speed come back to life. He recognizes the unsung heroes and regional racers who competed, staffed, and took on various roles at these tracks. Many road courses were built in the 1950s and 1960s, the golden age of American road racing. These classic road courses built and hosted famous races for Trans-Am, Can-Am, IndyCar, Formula 1, and sports car racing, but did not survive the times. They fell victim to changing times, poor business decisions, urban sprawl, safety standards, and increasing real estate prices.In the pages of this book, a nostalgic tour of these famous races at these vintage road circuits unfolds. Many period photos illustrate the racing action and the tracks themselves in their former glory, and modern color photos show the tracks as they currently stand. If you're a fan of classic sports car, Can-Am, Trans-Am, IndyCar, and Formula 1 racing, as well as classic and unique tracks of yesteryear, this book is a must-have item.

The photos in this edition are black and white.Explore Harley Earl's impact on the automotive design landscape and the teams he led to create the iconic 1953 Corvette, 1955-1957 Chevy Bel Air, 1927 LaSalle, and more.Veteran automotive historian David W. Temple has researched and unearthed the complete story of Harley Earl's cars, his notable design achievements, and many accolades.Working as a coachbuilder at his father's Earl Automotive Works in Hollywood, California, the young Earl learned his trade. After styling the 1927 LaSalle for GM president Alfred P. Sloan, this book describes how Earl rose to prominence and ran the newly created department of Art and Colour. Automobile design stagnated during the Depression and World War II, but the number of his contributions to the automotive world in the 1950s is staggering.When the jet age hit, Earl fully embraced aviation design and infused it into GM cars. The Buick Y-Job and GM Le Sabre featured many firsts in automotive design and hardware. The Y-Job's fender extensions trailing over the doors, disappearing headlamps, flush door handles, and a metal cover over the convertible top were a few innovations. When General Motors needed to show off its cars and technology, Harley Earl-designed cars were the stars of the Motorama show that toured the country from 1949 to 1961. As a titan of American auto design, the cars he helped create are still celebrated today. And as an enduring legacy, he inspired a generation of engineers, designers, and stylists.Harley Earl's drive toward bold and innovative design spurred American car design during the mid-20th century. His distinctive designs defined the 1950s finned cars and set American automotive design on the path it has followed into the modern era. With this in-depth examination, you learn the inside story of these remarkable cars and the man behind them. It's an essential addition to any automotive library.
I Should Have Left the Whiskey is the first book in the Rambling On trilogy - compelling tales from a time when motorcycles were left in the shed and global exploration slowed to the pace of cycling.These diaries divulge two very different journeys in Asia: because progressing into enlightened India required some back-pedalling through darkest Thailand en route to China.After impulsively purchasing a bicycle in Bangkok and taking to the frantic city streets, Graham was hit by the realisation that life in the fast lane could have an impact on his health.Pedalling away from the madding crowd, he hauled his heavy load to mountain settlements lost somewhere in time. Desperate and dehydrated, he was subjected to all that the lonely road bestows upon the soul.It soon became apparent that whiskey was not the best choice of refreshment. However, he rebelliously refused to abandon the bottle or the mission, keeping his glassy eyes fully focused on what was ahead.A year later, having eliminated some of the heavier baggage from that journey, he found himself in southern India. Surely, this coast-hugging, palm-shaded backwater route would be a breeze ... but the easy road is not always the right path.Had reckless decisions taken him beyond his abilities? With flashbacks, foresight and the riotous brutal honesty that is confined to a diary, all will be revealed.
At the start of the Ford Motor Company in 1903, the Dodge Brothers supplied nearly every car part needed by the up-and-coming auto giant. After fifteen years of operating a successful automotive supplier company, John and Horace Dodge again changed the face of the automotive market in 1914 by introducing their own car. The Dodge Brothers automobile carried on their names even after their untimely deaths in 1920, which led to its sale in 1925 to New York bankers and subsequent purchase in 1928 by Walter Chrysler. Hyde not only details the brothers' lives and influence on automotive manufacturing and marketing trends in the early part of the twentieth century but also their civic contributions to Detroit, their hiring of African Americans and women, and their often anonymous charitable contributions to local organizations. Despite their achievements and their critical role in the early success of Henry Ford, John and Horace Dodge are usually overlooked in histories of the early automotive industry, but Hyde has put them front and center again to appropriately credit their lasting legacy.

174 pages with 145 illustrations, diagrams and charts, size 6-5/8 x 10-1/4 inches. This is a publication for those Ferrari enthusiasts that are tired of oversized and often overpriced coffee table books filled with page after page of photos of red Ferrari's and not much else.This book contains all the technical data and statistics for the majority of the 1948 to 1958 Ferrari road and race cars. It was compiled by a knowledgeable author who lived in Modena at the time that these cars were being constructed, who was personally acquainted with Enzo Ferrari and had access to the factory documents during that time period. It includes the author's road test experiences, technical specifications, tune up, adjustments, maintenance and repair information, detailed technical drawings, exploded views, wiring diagrams and lubrication charts. This book is a 'must have' for any Ferrari enthusiast or lucky owner of one of these early cars and should be in the library of any true Ferraristi. Originally published by Floyd Clymer in 1960 under the similar title of 'The Ferrari Owner's Handbook', its description left much to be desired. For example, of the 174 pages there are 90 pages that are much closer to a repair and maintenance manual. Consequently, it's more of a technical manual than a handbook.There are seven sections that cover both the road and race cars constructed by Ferrari from 1948 to 1958. Section 1 - The authors driving experiences of the Type 166, Type 342 and 340 America and Type 375 America.Section 2 - Specifications for 41 road and race cars constructed by Ferrari from 1948 to 1958. Section 3 - Repair, Maintenance and tune up information.Section 5 - Valve Timing and Carburetor data.Section 6 - Acceleration times.Section 7 - Detailed component drawings, exploded views, Wiring Diagrams, Lube charts etc.
204 pages and more than 60 illustrations and charts, size 8.25 x 10.75 inches. This publication is a reproduction of two original Velocette Factory Manuals, the March 1971 service manual, part number 484/11R and the January 1974 illustrated parts manual, part number F482/7R.The original 124-page factory service manual covers the 1954-1971 range of 350cc and 500cc machines including the Viper, Venom and MSS models and it also includes a 30-page supplement for the Thruxton, Scrambler and the Sports and Clubman models. This manual will also be of use to owners of the rare Floyd Clymer 'Indian Velo' which utilized either the MSS/Venom or the Thruxton engine.The original 76-page illustrated parts manual also includes a 20-page supplement for the 'special' machines and covers the 500cc MSS, Venom, Clubman (Mk. I & II), Scrambler, Thruxton and Endurance models plus the 350cc Viper, Clubman (Mk. I & II) and Scrambler.Owners of the 350cc and 500cc Velocette models are subjected to considerable confusion surrounding the appropriate selection of the multitude of originals and reprints of the various manuals that have recently flooded the online marketplace. Based on the factory part numbers there were approximately 20 service and parts manuals published during the 17-year production run of these machines and the earlier manuals do not include information on the Clubman, Scrambler and Special Viper variants or the Thruxton, Clubman, Scrambler and Special Venom models. However, the manuals selected for this reprint are those that include all of the 350cc & 500cc models and their variants manufactured by Velocette from 1954 to 1971.
