Balance in Vienna: Yellow Angels Deployed Around 466,000 Times

The range of assistance extended from consultations on travel, law, insurance, the right child seat, or safe transport systems for vacation and leisure, to stationary roadside assistance and numerous inspection services by ÖAMTC technicians. Last year alone, nearly 219,000 technical inspections were carried out at the Vienna bases of the mobility club – including classics like the §57a inspection sticker, purchase tests, vehicle checks before holiday trips, or the popular free "Winterfit" campaign.

More than 440,000 members in the federal capital already trust the ÖAMTC, which corresponds to a further increase of over two percent in the past year.

Free Bicycle Check and Dedicated Bicycle Service

In addition to the free bicycle check, the ÖAMTC also offers a dedicated bicycle service: a comprehensive technical inspection for bicycles and e-bikes. "Furthermore, at selected locations, including our bases in Erdberg and Vienna-West, we conduct a special 'E-Bike Battery Check' – particularly relevant when buying or selling used electric bikes," informs base manager Fuhrmann. Additionally, at the ÖAMTC in Erdberg and Vienna-West, a "Health Check" for e-cars and plug-in hybrids is also offered – where the drive battery is checked for its existing capacity and safety. "The e-battery diagnosis thus quickly provides information about its actual condition. Not least due to the increasing number of e-cars on the used car market, this option for battery inspection is becoming increasingly relevant and also more in demand," says Fuhrmann.

For some time now, the mobility club has also been offering a gas system inspection for caravans and motorhomes: An official confirmation of the flawless functionality of the system is now an important requirement at many campsites at home and abroad. This inspection service (according to guideline G107) is offered at selected ÖAMTC bases – including in Erdberg, Vienna-West, and Donaustadt.
