Attention drivers: lightning trap on the A24 – now it’s getting expensive!
What's going on on the A24 motorway today? On August 11, 2025, there were already several mobile speed cameras in Brandenburg early in the morning to keep drivers on guard. How news.de Reportedly, a speed trap was discovered in the Fehrbellin/Tarmow area at 8:14 a.m. and previously at Heiligengrabe/Papenbruch at 7:10 a.m. A speed limit of 120 km/h applies here. Even if there is currently no fixed speed camera installed on the A24, mobile controls should not be underestimated.
The federal police have made traffic on these routes their task and are adjusting speed measurements to ensure traffic safety. It is important not to drive too fast, as speeding is one of the most common causes of accidents in Germany. After all, the Road Traffic Act (StVO) regulates the punishment of these violations, which can often lead to fines, points or even driving bans.
Catalog of fines for speeding violations
Loud ADAC There is a nationwide catalog of fines that clearly regulates the penalties for speeding. In urban areas, exceeding the speed limit by up to 10 km/h can result in a fine of 30 euros, while larger violations, such as 61 to 70 km/h too fast, can result in a fine of up to 700 euros and a three-month driving ban.
- Bußgelder innerorts:
- Bis 10 km/h zu schnell: 30 €
- 11 – 15 km/h: 50 €
- 16 – 20 km/h: 70 €
- 31 – 40 km/h: 260 € (2 Monate Fahrverbot)
- Über 70 km/h: 800 € (3 Monate Fahrverbot)
Outside built-up areas, the regulations are similar, but the fines here are sometimes higher and are punished more severely even for minor violations. Exceeding the speed limit of 26 km/h or more outside of urban areas can also result in a one-month driving ban. Well, if you don't follow the rules, you can quickly say "Hello" to the law enforcement officers!
Lightning system technology
Mobile speed cameras used in Brandenburg often use radar or laser-based technologies. These flexible measuring devices are usually placed inconspicuously on the side of the road. How bussgeldkatalog.org Notes, semi-stationary speed cameras are common and are often set up as trailers. The Enforcement Trailer from Vitronic or the Traffistar S350 from Jenoptik could be used on the A24. Some measurement results from the Traffistar S350 have even been declared unusable in the past, which poses an interesting challenge for some of those affected.
A healthy respect for speed limits can't hurt. If you were driving too fast and missed a speed camera, it is advisable to know that appeals against fines can be lodged within two weeks - provided you can provide good arguments. Often you are only informed of such violations via a hearing form, and the deadline begins to run!
So be careful and don't collect unwanted points on your account. Because the mobile speed camera is scary for a reason, and the trip to the next rest stop can quickly become an expensive experience. Drive safely and relaxed!
