Spashed alarm on the A19: High punishments threaten to exceed speed!

What happens on the streets around Cologne today? On July 8, 2025, drivers on the A19 in the Wittstock/Dosse area in the district of Ostprignitz-Ruppin, Brandenburg, have to throw a particularly vigilant eye on the speed. A mobile radar box was set up there at 7:00 a.m. With a speed limit of 120 km/h, it is advisable to operate the accelerator pedal a little more gentle, because the speed cameras are essential for traffic safety.

Important to know: The last update of the flasher formations took place today at 11:16 a.m. and reminds us that speed violations can be punished with high fines. These sanctions are regulated within the framework of the Road Traffic Regulations (StVO), which clearly defines which penalties are in danger of violating. Of course, you should have a good knack for the speed adjustment to the respective traffic situation in order to avoid unnecessary costs.

as for the fines

In connection with the StVO novelization of April 28, 2020, the fines have only recently been raised. In urban areas, for example, drivers must now expect a fine of 70 euros if they are 16 km/h too quickly, whereas a month is exceeded with an exceeding of 21 km/h and a point in the driving suitability register threaten. Outside, the "lower border" is 16 km/h, here there is a fine of 60 euros, which does not result in a point.

• fines urban:
  • 10 km/h too fast: 30 euros
  • 16 km/h too fast: 70 euros
  • 26 km/h too fast: 180 euros (1 month driving ban)
• fines outside:
  • 10 km/h too fast: 20 euros
  • 16 km/h too fast: 60 euros
  • 26 km/h too fast: 150 euros (1 month driving ban)

technical support prohibited

Particularly interesting: Radar warning devices and speed camera apps are prohibited in Germany. Wer auf Navigations-Apps angewiesen ist, sollte darauf achten, dass die Warn-Funktion deaktiviert ist, um auch hier nicht am Griff in die Geldbörse erwischt zu werden. Radio warnings, on the other hand, are permitted, which may calm down some drivers.

The A19, which leads as part of Europe Straße 55 from Rostock to Wittstock/Dosse, is an important traffic axis with a total length of 123 km. Umso wichtiger ist es, sich an die Verkehrsregeln zu halten, denn ein einmonatiges Fahrverbot kann ab einer Überschreitung von 26 km/h verhängt werden. This should be a warning to each road user to adapt their pace to the conditions.

Ultimately, a study shows that 56 % of the fine notices may be incorrect. Therefore, it is advisable not to lose your nerves in the event of a possible decision, but to keep the possibility of an objection open within two weeks.

Enjoy a safe journey and remember to keep an eye on the speed!
