There are many "property disturbance traps" throughout Austria. By far the most notorious area in Upper Austria is the parking lot of the former "Kaiser Franz" on Unionstraße in Linz. One victim recounts his most expensive turning maneuver ever - and, according to the ÖAMTC, reacted correctly. The mobility club is calling for a change in the law. The former operator of the snack stand emphasizes that it is not him but the new owner of the space who is responsible for the rip-off.

"You feel so helpless and can't really do anything!" Although it was a month ago, Meike Wizani can still clearly hear the anger. What had happened?
