Dresden in the speed camera focus: This is how we hunt speeders today!

On September 24, 2025, traffic safety will be the focus again in Dresden. Only one street in the city is currently monitored by mobile speed cameras and could provide unpleasant surprises for speeders. The mobile speed trap is located on Saalhausener Straße, in the Cotta district, near Naußlitz and Neunimptsch, where the permitted speed is limited to 30 km/h. However, there is currently no official confirmation of the speed camera location [news.de].

The danger situation in road traffic can constantly change due to various factors. Regular adjustments to mobile speed cameras are therefore essential. Speeding is one of the most common traffic violations and is the main cause of many accidents. Effective speed controls are designed to increase safety on the roads and prevent accidents, explains bussgeldkatalog.org.

Variety of speed controls

The police use different methods to check compliance with speed limits. This includes both mobile and stationary speed cameras. The checks often take place in dangerous areas, such as busy intersections, in order to minimize the risk of an accident. But the penalties for speeding also vary: In urban areas, speeding up to 10 km/h will result in a fine of 30 euros, while speeding over 70 km/h can quickly result in a fine of 800 euros and an additional three-month driving license suspension.

Catalog of fines for inner cities amount
up to 10 km/h 30€
11 – 15 km/h 50€
16 – 20 km/h 70€
21 – 25 km/h 115 € (1 point)
26 – 30 km/h 180 € (1 month driving ban)
over 70 km/h €800 (3 months driving ban)

The speed measurement methods are diverse and range from classic speed traps to laser and video tracking systems to innovative technologies such as Section Control, which measures the average speed over longer distances. Even if private speed monitoring is permitted under certain conditions, approval and inspection by the responsible road traffic authority remains a must.

Current developments in road traffic

The perception of road safety is not just a task for the authorities. Road users themselves should also develop a good feeling and sense of responsibility in road traffic. Statistics show that speeding accounts for a significant proportion of traffic accidents. The consequences can be dramatic – both legally and health-wise. It is therefore advisable to always adapt your speed to the conditions and pay attention to the signs.

With this in mind, dear Dresden residents: Stay vigilant and drive carefully so that we all get to our destination safely! And remember: safety in traffic begins with each and every one of us.
