Jubilee of the German Transport Wacht: important decisions in Berlin

An exciting chapter in the history of the German Verkehrswacht (DVW) is imminent! This organization was founded in Berlin on November 3, 1924 and since then it has written an unprecedented success story in the field of voluntary prevention work. The DVW's annual general meeting will take place on November 6, 2024 in the renowned Langenbeck-Virchow-Haus in Berlin Mitte on November 6, 2024.

The ceremony is given by a greeting from the Federal Minister of Transport Dr. Volker Wissing opened, which will underline the importance of DVW and its work. But that's not all: a new wind is blowing! Prof. Kurt Bodewig, who has successfully managed the DVW for 17 years, will resign early. The dynamic Kirsten Lühmann runs in his place. She becomes the first woman at the head of the organization - a historical moment! Lühmann has an impressive career: 27 years of police service in Lower Saxony and over a decade as a member of the German Bundestag. The DVW will certainly benefit its expertise as a traffic policy spokeswoman for the SPD parliamentary group.

important topics on the agenda

The event is not only a change at the top, but also a forum for current debates. An important point on the agenda will be the vote on a resolution application on the subject of "cannabis and road traffic". The DVW wants to move into a clear position here. In addition, the best traffic watch projects of the past year will be awarded at the general meeting! The "mobile and safe" price is awarded to the outstanding initiatives that have campaigned for our security on the streets.
