Actually the one pictured was in Austria. It was fairly safe, no coming off the track but you could run into the guy in front of you.
The one I rode outside Munich on the other hand was quite dangerous. It wasn't on rails and I actually fell over at high speed and had to quickly get back on track as someone was coming not to far behind. I had a nice bit of road rash on my elbow from the fall.
