Infamous Prague “beer bikes” could return this weekend

Saturday will see the end of the Prague City Hall ban on vehicles serving alcohol to tourists while driving through the capital’s centre. The “beer bikes”, as these devices are commonly referred to, were banned earlier this year. However, the decision had to be cancelled after a court ruling stated that the ban is not within the competencies of City Hall, but has to be made by the respective road authorities in individual Prague districts.

Deputy Mayor Adam Schienherr has sent a letter to Prague districts asking them to approve the cancellation of beer bikes on class I roads themselves in cooperation with City Hall.
