A19: Speed controls near Wittstock – How to stay free of speed cameras!
Today, June 28th, 2025, brings important news for drivers on the A19 between Rostock and Wittstock/Dosse. Motorists should pay particular attention to the speed checks being carried out in this section today. At 6:51 a.m. a speed camera location was reported near Wittstock Dosse in the Ostprignitz-Ruppin district (Brandenburg). There is a speed limit of 120 km/h and, as always, the rules of the Road Traffic Act (StVO) should be observed.
Mobile flash systems are often used, especially in the warmer months, as they can be flexibly set up on the side of the road to detect traffic offenders. These speed cameras use modern technologies such as radar or laser-based devices to record speeding. The devices usually only flash in one direction, which has already made life difficult for many drivers. The News.de reports that the devices can also be used off the motorway, especially on Dangerous areas or construction sites.
Speed limits and fines
Why are speed limits important? The answer is simple: they serve road safety. In Germany there are clear guidelines as to where and how flashlights can be used. For example, it is permitted to flash even in bad weather conditions such as rain or black ice, without the need for a visible flash. According to ADAC, various measuring methods are used. These include laser measurements, radar measurements and induction loops, all of which are subject to strict technical requirements.
According to the [Bußgeldkatalog](https://www.derbussgeldkatalog.de/Blitzer-Deutschland/ Karten/), the fines for speeding vary depending on the speed limit. Here is a brief overview:
- 21 km/h zu schnell: 70 EUR und 1 Punkt in Flensburg
- 26 km/h zu schnell: 80 EUR, 1 Punkt und mögliches Fahrverbot
- 41 km/h zu schnell: 160 EUR, 2 Punkte und 1 Monat Fahrverbot
Anyone who repeatedly drives too fast can quickly face a driving ban, which ultimately no one wants.
There are over 4,500 stationary speed cameras installed in Germany that require regular maintenance. These are often called “box” speed cameras and are placed in strategic locations. There are also modern video systems on motorway bridges that further increase traffic safety. Mobile flash units, on the other hand, are also a flexible solution and can be set up where people often drive too fast.
Conclusion
Overall, it is clear that speed controls play an essential role in road safety. This way you can avoid a lot of trouble and risk, and this applies not only to the A19, but everywhere in Germany. Drivers should always have a good hand and keep an eye on the traffic rules. If you stick to the speed limits, you will stay relaxed and without a fine.
