Speeders beware: Speed camera attack reported in Bad Cannstatt today!
Today, May 22, 2025, the police in Stuttgart again activated speed monitoring in traffic. There is currently only one mobile speed trap in use, which is located on Steinhaldenstrasse, 70378 Bad Cannstatt. There is a speed limit of 50 km/h, which road users should strictly adhere to.

Road traffic in Baden-Württemberg is monitored continuously, with temporary speed measurements possible throughout the city of Stuttgart. Speeding is a common traffic violation and is the main cause of traffic accidents in Germany. The associated risks to traffic safety are significant, which is why speeders and people who are harassing people have to expect fines and possible driving bans.
Speed monitoring regulations
The punishment for speeding is subject to the Road Traffic Act (StVO). The corresponding catalog of fines provides information on penalties for various traffic violations such as traffic light violations and distance violations. An important aspect here is the tolerance deduction, which compensates for inaccuracies in speed measurements. Loud Bussgeldkatalog.org The tolerance deduction is 3 km/h at speeds below 100 km/h and 3 percent at higher speeds. Measurement errors caused by various measuring devices, including mobile lasers and stationary radars, are also among the challenges of speed monitoring.
A certain tolerance deduction is either automatically deducted by the measuring systems or manually during the evaluation. Special video tracking systems can claim a higher tolerance deduction of 5 km/h or 5 percent. In individual cases, courts have the option of granting higher tolerance deductions if measurement errors are proven.
Fines and consequences
The consequences of speeding violations are serious: they not only lead to fines, but also to points and possibly driving bans. The nationwide catalog of fines ADAC refers to the following fines for speeding violations in urban areas:
| Exceedance (km/h) | Fine (€) | Points | Driving ban |
|---|---|---|---|
| Until 10 | 30 | ||
| 11 – 15 | 50 | ||
| 16 – 20 | 70 | ||
| 21 – 25 | 115 | 1 | |
| 26 – 30 | 180 | 1 | 1 month |
| 31 – 40 | 260 | 2 | 2 months |
| 41 – 50 | 400 | 2 | 2 months |
| Over 50 | 560+ | 3 | 3 months |
The regulations regarding speeding outside of urban areas are similar, although the fines are generally slightly lower. Drivers often only find out about a possible violation through a hearing form. An appeal against the fine can be lodged for speeding exceeding 16 km/h, provided the driver is identified within three months of the violation.
All road users should take road safety seriously in order to avoid serious accidents. The police in Stuttgart will continue to work preventatively and monitor traffic.
