bicycle lightning in germany

for those of you who doesnt already know, germany has certainly one of the most stupid regulations for the use of lights on bicycles. all bikes have to use a bicycle dynamo instead of "road bikes" under a weight of 11 kilograms - they are allowed to use batterie powered lights. a "road bike" is defined by its dropbar and it´s weight. all other bikes, even if they are also under 11kg, have to use a dynamo. so how dumb is that?! this satirical video from the tv programme extra 3 discusses this problem.
