Spread revenue in Lower Saxony: Differences raise questions!

Grafschaft Bentheim, Deutschland - In Lower Saxony, the income from radar systems shows different development, as a survey by the German Press Agency (dpa) showed. While some regions report on an increase in income, others have a decline.

additional income was found in cities such as Hanover and in the districts of Göttingen, Uelzen and Grafschaft Bentheim. The increase in the Leer district is particularly striking, where the income of 1.33 million euros in 2022 rose to EUR 2.49 million in 2024. A similar trend can be observed in the Stade district, where the income has increased from 1.2 million euros to 2.65 million euros. The main reason for this increase in Leer is the expansion of the speed measurements.

decline in income in other regions

The income vary greatly in different regions, such as in the Hanover region as well as the cities of Braunschweig and Oldenburg and the district of Vechta. In these areas, the income fluctuates between a hundred thousand euros, such as in Emden, to several million euros, for example in the Helmstedt district

In addition, an article from bussgeldkatalog.org on the subject of speed measurements on German roads. The main goal of these measures is to increase traffic safety. In 2013, 5,126 drivers were occupied with points, fines and driving bans due to speeding.

Traffic radar systems check to comply with the permissible maximum speed by sending radar devices a signal that determines the speed of the vehicles. However, measurement errors can occur, for example by incorrect placement of the speed camera. Inpatient radar devices can be found frequently, while mobile devices can be used in changing locations. A practical example is a radar system in Bielefeld, which brought in 6 million euros in fines in 2010.

The tolerance for measurements is 3 km/h at speeds below 100 km/h and over 100 km/h 3 %. Since disruptive factors such as reflections or inadequate calibration can affect the measurements, an objection to fines may make sense, especially if the photo quality is bad or measurement error.
