Positive balance sheet based on Speedmarathon: Fewer Tempos Anemia in Northern Hesse!
The speed camera marathon in the Werra-Meißner district, which took place on Wednesday, April 12, 2025, from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. According to a report by hna , a total of 1176 vehicles were checked at six checkpoints. 52 speed violations were found, which were largely in the warning area. In one case, a driving ban was even pronounced.
In addition to the controls in the Werra-Meißner district, 6261 vehicles were measured in two other places, which led to a total of 212 violations and four other driving bans. In North Hesse, a total of 28,291 vehicles were examined at 54 measuring points, whereby only 3.6 percent of road users were driving at excessive speed. This represents a decline compared to previous years - in 2024 it was 3 percent and 2023 4.4 percent.overview of the results
The balance of the speed camera marathon shows that 128 drivers have to expect points in Flensburg and fines in the controlled areas. Eight road users now expect driving bans of at least one month. A driver recorded the highest speed violation on Leipziger Strasse in Kassel, which drove at 109 km/h instead of the permitted 50 km/h. This draws a fine of 560 euros, two points and a two -month driving ban.
Further administrative offenses that were found in the course of the controls include 36 violations, including cell phone and belt violations. These figures make it clear that the monitoring of road traffic is continuously improved and that awareness of speeding is to be sharpened.
European speed camera marathon
The speed camera marathon is part of the European speed camera marathon, which is organized under the Roadpol network. On Wednesday, April 9, 2025, he took off intensively in many federal states in Germany, including Bavaria, Baden-Württemberg, Thuringia and Hesse. Auto Motor and Sport emphasizes that higher speeds are spread in rural areas.
The controls in federal states such as Lower Saxony and Saxony took place over the entire week without a special focus on April 9th. In Hesse, similar to other federal states, the main areas of control were announced in advance, which gave road users the opportunity to adjust to the measures. The next big campaign is already scheduled for August 2025, with intensive controls taking place again without a special speedster day.
The results of these and other controls are not only important for direct traffic safety, but also help to promote the sustainable reduction of speed overruns, which ultimately serves the goal of avoiding accidents and driving the turnaround in Germany. Further information can be found on Eurostat
