Flashing lights and speed traps: Police checked in Baiersbronn on October 4th
On October 4, 2025, mobile speed controls are on the program in Baiersbronn, Baden-Württemberg. The police will be on Murgtalstrasse in Klosterreichenbach (zip code 72270, Heselbach) and will make sure that road users adhere to the speed limit of 70 km/h that applies there. It was found that in the past many drivers regularly exceeded this speed limit, highlighting the need for such controls. Today, however, the exact location of the speed camera remains unconfirmed, according to the police statement in the afternoon.
The Freudenstadt traffic service branch in particular helped to bring a large number of traffic offenders to justice in a last operation on September 4, 2024 on federal highway 500. Over 90 drivers were caught speeding at well over the speed limit, including a motorcyclist who was traveling at over 140 km/h. The result was not only a few unpleasant encounters with the police, but also driving bans and fines. Two car drivers and four motorcyclists have already been held responsible for their misconduct.
Causes of accidents in road traffic
The police strongly remind people that speeding is one of the main causes of traffic accidents. A comprehensive analysis of the accident is supported by Destatis, which provides reliable statistics on the road safety situation. Such data is essential to develop and optimize measures in legislation, traffic education, road construction and vehicle technology.
Road traffic accident statistics provide valuable information about accidents, those involved and their vehicles, as well as the causes of accidents. This data is not only useful for government policies, but also serves as a basis for government transport policy, particularly with regard to infrastructure and road safety. In view of the increasing traffic density, regular participation in speed controls like today's one in Baiersbronn is essential to ensure the safety of all road users.
The controls currently being carried out encourage drivers to adhere to the applicable traffic regulations. This is the only way we can work together to ensure more safety on our roads.
