A19: Tempo controls at Wittstock - this is how you remain speed camera!

Today, June 28, 2025, there is important news for drivers on the A19 between Rostock and Wittstock/Dosse. Drivers should pay particular attention to the speed controls that are carried out in this section today. At 6:51 a.m., a flash location at Wittstock Dosse in the district of Ostprignitz-Ruppin (Brandenburg) was registered. A speed limit of 120 km/h applies here, and as always, the rules of the Road Traffic Regulations (StVO) should be observed.

Mobile flash systems are often used, especially in the warmer months, because they can be flexibly set up on the roadside to record traffic offenders. These speed cameras use modern technologies such as radar or laser-based devices to capture speed overruns. As a rule, the devices flash in one direction, which has already made life difficult for many drivers.

speed limits and fines

Why are speed limits important? The answer is simple: they serve traffic safety. In Germany there are clear guidelines where and how can be flashed. For example, it is allowed to flash even in poor weather conditions such as rain or black ice without needing a visible flash. According to ADAC, various measurement methods are used. These include laser measurements, radar measurements and induction loops that are subject to all strict technical requirements.

The fines for speed overruns are different in accordance with the [Fine Catalog] (https://www.derbussgeldatalog.de/blitzer-Deutschland/karten/), depending on the exceedance. Here is a brief overview:

• 21 km/h too fast: 70 EUR and 1 point in Flensburg
• 26 km/h too fast: 80 EUR, 1 point and possible driving ban
• 41 km/h too fast: 160 EUR, 2 points and 1 month driving ban

If you drive too quickly, you can quickly threaten to bans, which in the end nobody wants.

In Germany, over 4,500 inpatient speed camera are installed that have to be serviced regularly. These are often called "boxes" speed camera and are placed in strategically selected 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 you often drive too quickly.

FAZIT

Overall, it is clear that speed controls play an essential role in road safety. This can avoid a lot of anger 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 stay relaxed and without fine.
