Tasting warning in Hamm: Where you have to be particularly careful in KW 43!

In Hamm, the city announces increased speed controls in a few days. Drivers should be on their hat, especially in calendar week 43, which lasts from October 21 to 27. With this measure, the administration wants to give an overview of the current speed camera locations in order to avoid surprises on the streets. The announcement follows an incident in which a man from Hamm was frustrated due to sudden control.

The speed monitoring is distributed to different districts, with the first controls taking place on Monday, October 21st. Drivers in Heessen and Pelkum have to be careful, as speed measurements will take place here.

It should be noted that these locations only serve as a focus of the controls. This means that the police can also carry out speed measurements in other urban areas, on Sundays and public holidays, and at any time of the day or night. The administration also emphasizes that the mobile devices can only be used if the local conditions allow this, such as with a suitable parking situation or in the event of a suitable weather conditions.

It is particularly important that many drivers meet blue columns on the roadside that looks like the flashes. However, these do not represent radar controls, but should not be completely unnoticed- some of these pillars have other surveillance or control functions.
