Speed cameras everywhere in Hamburg: Where there is lightning today!
Today, September 5, 2025, the Hamburg police are ensuring increased attention on the city's streets. Speed cameras aimed at speeding are carried out at a total of 10 different locations. Modern technology is used: the checks are carried out with enforcement trailers that use both laser and lidar technology. A short, flashing red light signals to drivers that a measurement is taking place, which provides additional transparency. This measure is part of ongoing efforts to increase road safety in the city and is constantly being adapted to address increasing traffic.
The speed cameras are distributed all over Hamburg. Here is an overview of the locations and applicable speed limits:

| Krohnstieg (Hamburg-Nord, Langenhorn) | 50 km/h | 10:08 am |

Uniform catalog of fines
The speeding violations measured can be expensive for the drivers affected. In Hamburg, the uniform catalog of fines applies to the whole of Germany, which means that the amount of fines is regulated uniformly. There is no separate catalog of fines for the Hanseatic city, which makes it easier to enforce traffic rules. The traffic situation in Hamburg is tense, especially in the inner-city areas, where a large number of traffic violations are recorded. This is facilitated by the city's approximately 1.85 million inhabitants and the associated high traffic. In addition, special regulations can also be found on the bussgeldkatalog.org platform, which include diesel driving bans or regulations on school law as well as animal and environmental protection.
Important information for drivers
It is also important to know that the use of speed camera warning systems, both in the form of apps and as physical devices in the vehicle, is prohibited in Hamburg. This is set out in Section 23 Paragraph 1b of the Road Traffic Act. Drivers should always ensure they adhere to speed limits when driving to avoid not only fines but also potential road hazards. Driving can only be fun if you stick to the rules.
Whether you're on your way to work or just want to explore the streets of Hamburg, keep an eye on the speed limits and drive safely!
