Speed camera warning in Schmelz: Be careful on Trierer Straße today!
Today, September 6, 2025, drivers in Schmelz in the Saarlouis district are strongly advised to keep an eye on their speed. [News.de](https://www.news.de/amp/auto/858919768/mobile-blitzer-d- Schmelz-radarkontrolle-saarlouis-saarland-aktuell-in-aussen-wo-wird-heute-am-samstag-06-09-2025-geblitzt/1/) reports on a mobile radar control that is on Trierer Straße (zip code 66839) is in use.

Mobile speed cameras not only serve to monitor speed, but are also an effective means of increasing traffic safety. HUK explains that these speed cameras are set up in particularly dangerous areas, such as in front of schools or in zones with reduced speeds. Whether using laser or radar, the technology behind these devices enables precise measurements. What many people don't know is that the devices are often discreet, sometimes even without a visible flash, which means that drivers can only be surprised afterwards.
For more safety on the roads
Speeding is one of the most common causes of traffic accidents. According to the latest statistics published by the Federal Motor Transport Authority KBA, speeding violations not only lead to an increased risk for the drivers concerned, but also endanger other road users. In 2024, more than 1.8 million speeding violations were registered for men and over 500,000 for women in Germany. These numbers make it clear: It's time to slow down and stick to the rules.
Mobile radar monitoring has established itself as a flexible solution to increase traffic safety. The operation is often carried out by police officers from civilian vehicles, and the speed cameras can be moved quickly. This means that the deterrent effect does not diminish over time, but rather remains stable. The goal is clear: consideration for vulnerable road users and compliance with speed limits - because the roads should be safe for everyone.
A look at the statistics
The official statistics also clearly show how important consistent traffic monitoring is. The Fitness to Drive Register (FAER) records over 10 million people who have committed traffic offenses. In 2024, there were a total of over 3.8 million registered administrative offenses, with speeding offenses being at the top. If you look at the details, it becomes clear that sustained awareness raising among road users is essential in order to further reduce the number of accidents.
Whether as a driver or passer-by, everyone can contribute to making the roads safer. So, dear drivers: Today it's important to take your foot off the accelerator and take the speed limit seriously. Be careful and think about the safety of all road users!
