Be careful, speed cameras! Speed ​​measurements in Halblech today!

A look at the street in Halblech in Ostallgäu is particularly worthwhile today! There will be mobile speed cameras here on October 9, 2025, and not without reason. The police are intensively monitoring the region in order to increase road safety and make it clear to drivers that speeding does not go without consequences. At this point, the greatest attention is paid: At Mühlbach, zip code 87642 in Trauchgau, there is now a maximum speed of 50 km/h. However, the exact location of the speed camera has not yet been determined, so drivers should be particularly vigilant. The current time window for the measurements was this morning, 7:22 a.m.

But why is so much emphasis placed on speed measurements everywhere? Quite simply – the goal is road safety. Just in 2013, over 5,126 drivers in Germany were given points, fines or, in some cases, even driving bans because they were driving too fast. The corresponding radar systems work efficiently: They send out a signal that determines the speed of the vehicles using a distance-time calculation. If you exceed the speed limit, a photo will be taken and a fine notice will be sent to the responsible vehicle owner.

Speed ​​cameras, their technology and possible fines

Mobile radar devices are very popular because they can be used flexibly at different locations. A few examples illustrate this: In great cities like Bielefeld on the A2, a radar system generated more than 6 million euros in fines in 2010. Many drivers' nerves are on edge! There is often a tolerance deduction if the speed record is only slightly exceeded - below 100 km/h it is 3 km/h and above 100 km/h even 3 percent.

But be careful! Measurements may be inaccurate; Factors such as angle placement, lane changes or even reflections can influence the results. And anyone whose photo looks bad may have a chance of appealing the fine. Don't forget: There are over 130 stationary radar systems in Austria, often which only take photos from behind. This keeps things exciting on the streets!

Overall, it is clear that the strict controls in Ostallgäu and beyond are not just harassment, but are intended to help protect all road users. So stay alert and always drive carefully through the beautiful streets of Halblech. This not only ensures your safety, but also that of others!
