Danger of lightning on the A12: Rauen reports new speed camera!

Today, Tuesday, August 12, 2025, drivers on the A12 motorway in Brandenburg, in the Rauen area, will be given a mobile speed camera to set their speed. There is a strict speed limit of 120 km/h. This action was reported at 9:47 a.m. today and monitoring will continue over the next few hours, according to a message from news.de.

Of course, information about lightning locations in Germany is in great demand. The speed camera map on bussgeldkatalog.org not only shows drivers where to expect speed checks, but is also continually updated. These maps are an important tool as the police and public order offices monitor road traffic on a daily basis to ensure safety.

The role of mobile and fixed speed cameras

Speed ​​cameras are used in different forms - mobile and fixed speed cameras have their own advantages and disadvantages. While mobile speed cameras, for example, are used specifically in places where local drivers can be caught, stationary speed cameras are more expensive to purchase and tend to make drivers drive faster again after crossing the device. However, a trend is emerging: more and more communities are relying on stationary speed camera systems, as shown by the pilot project in Lower Saxony, which has been testing section controls on the B6 near Hanover since 2015.

The number of fixed speed cameras also varies greatly between the federal states. How blitzed.de reported, Baden-Württemberg has the highest density of speed cameras in Germany with 2.95 speed cameras per 100 km², while Bavaria lags behind with just 0.01 speed cameras. Many Bavarian communities do not have their own speed camera systems due to high costs, which explains the low number.

Speed ​​camera density at a glance

The density of speed cameras in the individual federal states shows how different the enforcement of speed controls is everywhere:

Federal State Speed ​​camera density (per 100 km²)
Baden-Württemberg 2.95
Bremen 1.02
Hamburg 0.57
North Rhine-Westphalia 0.27
Brandenburg 0.68
Bavaria 0.01

However, mobile speed camera warnings are not permitted while driving in Germany in order not to endanger road safety. According to the Road Traffic Regulations (StVO), technical devices that display or even disrupt traffic monitoring measures may not be used. The use of navigation apps is also restricted; the warning function must be deactivated, even if smartphones are allowed while driving.

Whether commuting to work or on a long journey, drivers should be well informed about lightning locations and stick to the speed limits to avoid fines and points in Flensburg.
