The technology of speed traps
Speed cameras are an essential traffic monitoring tool. They determine the speed of vehicles using technologies that work with electromagnetic waves or light signals. This type of speed measurement, which has been carried out in Germany since 1957, works using the Doppler effect: radar waves are emitted and reflected by vehicles. The speed is then calculated from the change in the distance between the transmitter and receiver, as on the platform bussgeldkatalog.org is described.
If you exceed the speed limit, a photo of the vehicle and the driver is usually taken. Mobile radar measuring devices have the advantage that they can be used quickly and flexibly at different locations. Their visibility is often lower than that of stationary devices, which represents an additional aspect of traffic control.
Traffic education and safety
With a total of around 4,400 permanently installed radar measuring devices in Germany, radar monitoring plays a crucial role in traffic safety. The aim of these measures is not only to punish rule violations, but also to provide traffic education and increase road safety. Mobile speed cameras in particular are often less obvious and thus help to raise awareness among road users.
Attention: At the exits of the A81 there are numerous options for restaurants, hotels and shopping that invite you to take a break. But with the current speed camera controls, drivers should be particularly vigilant to avoid fines and other consequences.
