Speed camera warning in Stendal: where speed cameras are expensive today!
Vigilance is particularly important today because drivers in Stendal have to expect increased controls. How news.de reported, there are increased risks of fines and possible driving bans due to speeding at two locations in the city.
The police in Saxony-Anhalt take rigorous action against violators and continuously monitor traffic. The speed cameras are on Osterburger Straße, where the speed limit is 50 km/h. There is also a speed camera active on Wendstrasse, near the Evangelical Hospice, where drivers are not allowed to drive faster than 30 km/h - both measurements were reported today.
Legal basis and fines
But where exactly do traffic offenders face heavy fines? The regulations are clearly and precisely anchored in the road traffic regulations (StVO) and the catalog of fines. If you exceed the speed limit, different fines and points will be imposed in Flensburg depending on the speed limit. For example, if you exceed the speed limit by 21 to 25 km/h, you have to pay a fine of 115 euros, combined with one point - and these are only the mild cases.
| transgression | fine | Points | Driving ban |
|---|---|---|---|
| up to 10 km/h | 30€ | 0 | no driving ban |
| 11 – 15 km/h | 50€ | 0 | no driving ban |
| 26 – 30 km/h | 180€ | 1 | 1 month driving ban* |
| 41 – 50 km/h | 400€ | 2 | 1 month driving ban |
| over 70 km/h | 800€ | 2 | 3 month driving ban |
Additionally there is on the bussgeldkatalog.de the complete catalog of fines, which sets out clear guidelines for every speeding violation. Anyone who does not adhere to the regulations must face consequences.
Tolerances and differences in neighboring countries
Did you know that differences in speed measurement methods in other countries also lead to different tolerances? Loud adac.de In Germany, a tolerance of 3 km/h is usually deducted for speeds of up to 100 km/h. From 100 km/h it is 3 percent of the measured speed. There are similar regulations in our neighboring country Austria: There, a tolerance of 3 km/h also applies to laser measurements, and even 5 km/h to radar measurements.
Road safety is our top priority and regular checks are part of that. Unfortunately, it is also a reality that many drivers often have a “good knack” for driving too fast. This makes it all the more important to stick to the rules and pay attention to the speed signs - otherwise it quickly becomes expensive!
