Attention, drivers! These 8 speed cameras are lurking in Hamburg today!
The streets of Hamburg are now a dangerous place for speeders. While the police will also increase speed checks on October 14, 2025, there is a high probability of being caught speeding in eight places in the city. Particularly in busy areas where speeding is common, these controls are part of a comprehensive package of measures to increase the safety of all road users. News.de reports that the police continually adjust speed measurements to optimize traffic flow and ensure safety.
Today the speed limits are monitored at various locations. The list includes, among others, the Birckholtzweg in Wandsbek with a speed limit of 40 km/h and the A7 in Schnelsen, where 80 km/h is permitted. Saseler Straße and Kielmannseggstraße are also affected by the controls. Here, the development and processing of speed offenders is the order of the day, so that encounters between possible violators and the police are almost unavoidable.

With around 1.85 million inhabitants, Hamburg is not only the largest city in northern Germany, but also a hotspot for traffic controls. Loud Bussgeldkatalog.org Violations of traffic rules are particularly common in the city center. A new catalog of fines, which has been in force since November 2021, sets uniform rules for all of Germany. This provides clarity regarding the possible penalties for speeding.
The most common measurement methods that the police use are radar systems, light barriers and laser measuring devices. These technologies not only serve to catch speeding offenders, but also to have a deterrent effect. The tolerances for exceeding speeds are clearly regulated: below 100 km/h 3 km/h is deducted, above 100 km/h the tolerance is 3%. Bussgeldkatalog.net explains that there are both stationary and mobile speed cameras, although the latter can be used more flexibly.
The police and public order offices are responsible for carrying out these speed checks. Road users should always adhere to the speed limits not only to avoid fines, but above all to ensure their own safety and that of other road users. So anyone driving in Hamburg today should be particularly attentive and pay the necessary attention to the speed limit!
