Pentecostal travelers need nerves of steel this weekend. Early on Whit Saturday there were long traffic jams on the A10 (Tauern Autobahn). Travelers currently have to take into account a waiting time of five hours. And there may be more: around 10:30 am, climate activists also hijacked the highway in Salzburg.
About ten climate stickers marched quietly onto the A10, just outside Hallein. The activists did not have much to say, but they could listen even better to the irritated drivers.
“What you are doing is animal abuse.”
In addition to loud honking, drivers also got out of their cars and tried to persuade the activists to move aside. “What you are doing is animal abuse,” complained a driver who was in a hurry to get away from the scorching heat with his dog.
Police on site
The activists even tried to drag some motorists off the road themselves. The police were able to defuse the situation somewhat and waiting cars were diverted. Within a few minutes the police begin to disperse the demonstration.
