Speed ​​camera alarm in Trier: These streets are dangerous today!

Speed ​​camera alarm in Trier: These streets are dangerous today!

On June 23, 2025, several speed checks are scheduled in the Trier region, Luxembourg and Saarland. Anyone driving on the B50 near Metterich, the A1 in Schweich or the B257 in Hörschhausen should be particularly careful. Speed ​​measurements are also carried out on the B41 in Idar-Oberstein. Additional speed cameras are planned during the day in Mondorf-Les-Bains on the route de Remich, in the morning in Mompach on the Iewescht Strooss, at midday in Esch-Sur-Alzette on the rue de Belval and in the evening in the Capitale region on the occasion of the Fête Nationale. The Trier public order office and the police stations advise caution, because measurements may also be expected in other places, as lokalo.de reports.

It is essential to take a look at what happens if you “flash” in one of the categories mentioned. Speeding can have painful consequences. The fine for a violation in urban areas from 10 km/h is 58.50 euros without points. Anyone who drives too fast by up to 15 km/h can face a fine of 78.50 euros and from 21 to 25 km/h 143.50 euros are due - there is also a point in Flensburg. If you exceed the speed limit by more than 70 km/h, you can face up to 843.50 euros and a 3-month driving ban, as explained in detail on anwalt.de.

The regulations in detail

Interestingly, the fines vary depending on whether you are caught speeding in or out of town. From 10 km/h too fast, a fine of 48.50 euros is due for cars outside of urban areas, although the fine for 21 to 25 km/h is already 128.50 euros. If you go 41 km/h over the limit, you'll be charged 348.50 euros and 1 point - a very bitter aftertaste for many people. Even higher penalties apply to trucks and vehicles over 3.5 tons, as bussgeldportal.de informs.

If a fine is imposed, there are a few important points to consider. A notice of a fine is usually sent within 2-3 weeks - but in the worst case it can take up to 6 months. It is entirely possible to object to the decision, especially if errors occurred in the measurement or delivery. According to a study, almost 56% of fine notices are incorrect. So anyone who believes they have been unfairly punished should not hesitate to examine their rights.

Tips for drivers

Stricter rules apply to novice drivers and especially to those of them who are on probation. Speeding at just 21 km/h is considered a serious “A” violation, which can not only result in a fine, but also lead to an extension of the probationary period and participation in an advanced seminar.

Considering all these factors, it is advisable to pay attention to traffic and obey speed limits. The consequences of a “speed camera” can be seriously costly and jeopardize your driver’s license. The roads are for everyone and it is up to us to travel safely and responsibly.
