Before the action, Reijinga distributed a flyer via his Telegram group with, among other things, the text “Utrecht is closing Waku Waku? We are closing Utrecht! Put Dijksma in a tight spot.” Reijinga announced that during the evening rush hour he would “go for a nice drive near Utrecht. Not with 120 km but with 50 km, so that you can enjoy the surroundings. If you drive at 50 km per hour, the everything fixed. What the poster already indicates. Utrecht locks Waku Waku, and we lock Utrecht.”
