Attention speed cameras! Flashed today in Idar-Oberstein on Mühlenstrasse!

Today, November 7th, 2025, things will be exciting for all road users in Idar-Oberstein. There are currently speed controls at several locations that are worth paying attention to. Particularly noteworthy is Mühlenstrasse in Nahbollenbach, where a mobile speed camera is set up and the maximum speed is 30 km/h. This was reported early in the evening at 6:05 p.m., and the controls are well known: If you don't check your speed in time, it can quickly become expensive!

The lightning strikes are based on general information updated as of November 7, 2025, 6:15 p.m. Various speed cameras can be expected throughout the city, aiming to increase road safety. And to be honest, the matter of tolerance deductions plays an important role: If you drive at less than 100 km/h, 3 km/h will be deducted. At higher speeds you have to expect a deduction of 3 percentage points, although some measuring systems can show even higher deductions. So you should think carefully about whether you really want to press the accelerator pedal!

Lightning systems in Germany

What many people don't know: Germany has its own regulations regarding lightning systems. According to the Bussgeldkatalog, these can not only be used flexibly, but are also part of a well-thought-out set of rules. The aim is to guarantee road safety for both drivers and pedestrians. There are over 52,000 permanently installed radar devices, whose locations are always kept up to date. By entering your postal code, the speed camera map can help you discover the latest speed camera locations in your own region.

By the way: The trend is increasingly towards stationary speed cameras. Many drivers feel less stressed by fixed devices because they cannot accelerate when overrun. With new pilot projects, such as section control on the B6 in Lower Saxony, control over speeds will become even more precise in the future.

The use of speed cameras is a topic that is not only a topic of conversation among drivers. The question is repeatedly raised as to whether these controls actually contribute to traffic safety. The fact is that the police and public order offices are constantly working to make the streets a little safer. With the current speed cameras set up in Idar-Oberstein today, another step is being taken in this direction.
