Lippstadt in speed camera fever: You have to brake sharply here today!
In Cologne it is important to always pay attention to speed, as the purchase and use of speed measuring devices can be very expensive. Today, October 18th, 2025, the traffic situation in Lippstadt has changed somewhat: two mobile speed cameras are currently in use in the city. Loud news.de The controls have been in place on Planckstrasse, with a strict speed limit of 10 km/h, since 2:33 p.m. and on Luchtenstrasse, where 10 km/h is also required, since 1:37 p.m.
The locations of the mobile speed cameras are still temporary and can change at any time. Drivers should always keep this in mind, because traffic monitoring in North Rhine-Westphalia is carried out without guarantee. It pays to observe the speed limits not only out of respect for the rules, but above all to protect your own safety and the safety of other road users.
Speed controls and their meaning
Speeding is one of the most common causes of traffic accidents. This also emphasizes Website bussgeldkatalog.org, which shows that penalties can vary depending on the severity of the violation. In urban areas, speeding 21 km/h too much will result in 1 point and a fine of 115 euros. Anyone who does it even worse, for example by going 70 km/h too much, can expect a fine of 800 euros and a driving ban of three months.
It is all the more important to know that the tolerance for speed measurements in Germany is on average 3 km/h or 3% of the speed. Various technologies such as radar, lasers or induction loops provide the data, which then results in fine notices. However, speed camera dummies should be handled carefully as they are not legally permitted in public places.
Legal basis and technologies
The use of speed camera warning apps is controversial in Germany and can be considered illegal. Information about speed measurements, their technology and possible situations in which speed cameras are used - whether in the rain or at night - can be found in the guidelines of the Road Traffic Regulations (StVO). However, when monitoring speed, no fixed radar warning systems may be used in the vehicle and electronic aids such as these may not be used to display traffic monitoring measures ADAC clarifies.
Regular inspection of the measuring devices by qualified personnel is also required to ensure the accuracy of the speed measurements. It is therefore the responsibility of drivers to inform themselves about the applicable laws and regulations in road traffic and thus to actively contribute to road safety.
With this in mind, keep your eyes open and keep your speed under control. This not only benefits your wallet, but above all your safety on the road!
