Driving instructor Flittner inspires with strange anecdotes from traffic
In Erding, a driving instructor is causing a stir: Christoph Flittner, 41 years old, has his first book with the curious title “Drunk with a bike is okay, right?” published. Riva Verlag brought the entertaining work onto the market in October 2025 and it costs 16 euros. In his two decades as a driving instructor, Flittner has collected many anecdotes from traffic - and that shows in the book.
His literary work is anything but a classic textbook. Instead of dry theory, there are around 90 percent funny stories that make driving a smile. The rest consists of explanatory notes on myths about traffic rules and the law on impaired driving, especially from 1.6 per mille. “Drunk with a bike is okay, right?” is also based on a navigation system, which offers the reader a structured overview. The narrative begins directly with the initial discussions with the driving license candidates and allows the readers to take part in the funny and sometimes instructive moments of the theoretical and practical lessons.
From TikTok to the book
Flittner didn't just summarize his stories in book form. He has almost 928,000 followers on his TikTok channel “HerrFahrschule” and shares further anecdotes from his everyday working life there. This mix of entertainment and education has earned him a loyal following and shows that driving lessons can be fun - not just for the students, but also for the teacher himself.
The relevance of Flittner's book goes beyond the casual presentation of traffic rules. At a time when more and more road users are confronted with the laws and their own responsibility in traffic, Flittner enlightens readers without raising his finger. His humorous nature makes learning easier and ensures that his messages are received.
In a completely different context, topics such as responsibility and professionalism are also currently being discussed. There was recently a sensational incident on Fox News when former President Donald Trump was abruptly interrupted by the moderators during a live broadcast. Trump responded by calling Greg Gutfeld directly, a moment that captivated viewers. Gutfeld welcomed Trump live on television and questioned his controversial statements. During the election campaign, it is clear that responsibility for one's own speech is more on the agenda than ever - similar to on the road, where Flittner's book focuses on the need for consideration.
Christoph Flittner's book is not only a humorous appropriation of his experiences as a driving instructor, but also a contribution to the discourse about responsibility and good cooperation in traffic. So if you want to laugh about driving a car again or want to find out fascinating information about the strange sides of traffic, “Drunk with a bike is okay, right?” best advice.
