For that, they'd need a "victim" though, but they found none to date. At last, they want to fine him for being a pedestrian on a freeway, however the statute of limitations on misdemeanors like that is 3 months in Germany, and the offense has happened last year already.

Maybe the skateboarder was even faster than my Opel on that downhill track. :-p I’d say that’s exactly part of my route to work when I commute by car.
