Danger! New super speed camera in Striesen ensures 30 km/h speed controls!
In Dresden there is now a new reason to keep an eye on your speed! Another enforcement trailer was installed on Schlüterstrasse in the Striesen district, which is equipped with high-tech flash units. The speed limit here is 30 km/h, and the lightning box is set up in the direction of the city, directly near the 3 Striesen fire and rescue station. This measure is no coincidence, as speed monitoring is an important control measure for compliance with road traffic regulations, as Wikipedia explains.
The new speed camera is not the first of its kind, as another device was put into operation on Glashütter Straße just a few weeks ago. The city's goal is to increase traffic safety and prevent accidents that often occur due to speeding. In Germany, speed controls are in the hands of the police and regional regulatory authorities. These are not only intended to promote compliance with traffic rules, but also help to reduce the burden on city budgets. The income from fines flows into public coffers and helps cover the costs of monitoring.
New technical developments
Technical development in the area of speed monitoring has increased rapidly in recent years. The first successful use of a radar device took place in Düsseldorf in 1957. Since then, various technologies, such as radar and lasers, have found their way into speed monitoring. These devices use the Doppler effect to detect speed limits and immediately create images that can then be used as evidence.
Particularly in Germany, emphasis is placed on effective implementation. Whether stationary or mobile, the speed is controlled to increase road safety. Every year, around 25% of accidents involving personal injuries are due to speeding, which clearly shows how important this measure is. In comparison, Lünen recently introduced a similar superblitzer, which is also expected to bring the city several hundred thousand euros in fines, as Ruhr Nachrichten reports.
Whether you like it or not, speed enforcement is here to stay. It's worth taking a look at the speedometer because, after all, no one wants to have to dig into their wallet just because they've lost track of the speed limits. So, open your eyes and drive with your head!
