Blitzen in Nettetal: Today on Dornbuscher Straße during the speed check!
In the tranquil Nettetal, North Rhine-Westphalia, today everything revolves around road safety. Drivers should definitely observe the maximum permitted speed in order to avoid unpleasant surprises in the form of fines. Because the speed limit on Dornbuscher Straße, with a speed limit of 70 km/h, was set up around noon - exactly at 1:12 p.m., to be exact. These mobile speed cameras are a clear indication of the serious effort to make the roads safer and the last update of the speed camera location was at 3:16 p.m., as [news.de].
The speed monitoring measures are not arbitrary, they serve to ensure road safety. If you drive too fast, you have to expect high fines, which can cost a lot of money. A good hand is required here: Anyone who ignores the traffic rules must expect a fine, which not only puts a strain on the wallet, but can also result in points on the driving fitness register.
Fines and radar detectors
Many drivers have already heard of the so-called radar detectors, which are strictly forbidden in Germany. According to that ADAC These devices are not allowed to be used or carried in the car. This even applies to navigation devices that display speed cameras. Anyone who gets caught will face a fine of 75 euros and one point in Flensburg. Particularly important to know: The use of speed camera apps is also not permitted while driving, even if only the passenger is sitting behind them. Anyone who does this not only risks a fine, but also the confiscation of their device.
The ban does not only apply in Germany. A look across the borders shows that many European countries have similar regulations. In Belgium, for example, high fines starting at 800 euros are due if you are caught with such devices. In Austria, however, you are allowed to use GPS navigation devices with POI warnings as long as they do not interfere with the speed measurements. Anyone who does not comply with this can face fines of up to 10,000 euros.
International regulations
The legal situation varies from country to country, which is something drivers should take into account before traveling abroad. In many European countries, radar detectors and speed camera apps are also taboo. It is safer to check your devices thoroughly before traveling to avoid unpleasant surprises. An overview of the regulations shows the variety of penalties that await traffic control in different countries:
| country | control | Penalty |
|---|---|---|
| Germany | Ban | 75 euros, 1 point |
| Austria | Carrying ban | up to 10,000 euros |
| Belgium | Ban | from 800 euros |
| France | Ban | from 1,500 euros |

However, some countries like Romania waive penalties for POI warnings, making it a little easier to navigate safely. Ultimately, every driver should make sure that they are fully aware of the applicable regulations and behave accordingly in order to avoid fines and other legal problems. Safety on the roads is always a priority – not just for drivers, but also for all other road users.
