Speed cameras in Merseburg: Now it's getting serious - stick to the speed limit!
On September 4th, 2025 there will be a special focus on speed in traffic in Merseburg. In the middle of the hustle and bustle of the city, there is currently a speed camera on Klobikauer Straße, where the speed limit is 50 km/h. This measure shows once again how important it is to comply with speed regulations, as speeding is one of the main causes of traffic accidents news.de reported. The speed camera was reported at 10:28 a.m. today and the most recent information is as of 11:11 a.m.
The German catalog of fines, which was just updated this year, provides for strict penalties for speeding. Whether in town or out of town, the fines can quickly add up. For example, if you drive 21 to 25 km/h too fast in an urban area, you will be fined 115 euros and one point in Flensburg, while even driving 31 to 40 km/h will result in a fine of 260 euros and two points. Above 41 km/h there is even a two-month driving ban. According to information from ADAC, drivers who drive over 70 km/h too fast can expect a fine of up to 800 euros and the loss of their driving license for three months.
Consequences and rights of road users
Road users should be aware that fines are not set in stone. It is entirely possible to lodge an objection against such notices, which usually has to be done within two weeks of delivery. In this context, it can also be mentioned that many notices have deficiencies, as blitzerkatalog.org states. Statistically speaking, 56 percent of fine notices have an error, be it due to inadequate evidence or a false accusation. In such cases, a speed camera photo can be helpful to check the accuracy of the measurement.
Additionally, drivers should be aware of the tolerance deductions that apply to account for measurement errors. For speeds below 100 km/h a deduction of 3 km/h is made. This rule can make all the difference for many road users.
It is advisable to drive particularly carefully and always observe the speed limits in order not to end up in the often unpleasant situation of a fine. We can only hope that the constantly changing traffic monitoring and measures nationwide will help make the roads safer.
