Speed ​​camera -free Christmas week: district of Schaumburg makes pace!

In the district of Schaumburg, mobile speed controls will be dispensed with this week in order to enable citizens to have a quiet Christmas. In recent years it has been common for the police to carry out intensive controls during this time, but the responsible district spokeswoman has confirmed that the mobile speed camera was not used during this holiday week. Nevertheless, traffic safety remains on the agenda: the stationary speed camera is still active and the police will carry out speed measurements sporadically. From January 2, the mobile speed camera will be available again, reported Sn-online.de

For drivers who exceed the speed limit outside of closed towns, there is a tolerance of three percent. A deduction of three km/h is carried out for speeds under 100 km/h before the fines are determined. For example, with an exceeding of up to 10 km/h, raters have to expect a fine of 20 euros, while an exceeding of 21 to 25 km/h already costs 100 euros. In town, a speed of up to 10 km/h leads to a fine of 30 euros, which is significantly higher than the punishments on country roads. This information comes from Service portal-schaumburg.de .

The fine also has the task of contacting the driver concerned before granting a fine. She informs about the possibility of making an objection to the decision, which can happen within two weeks. The current fees currently amount to 5 percent of the fine, but at least 25 euros. A timely reaction can therefore be crucial for road users to minimize possible financial consequences.
