Only five federal states are taking part in both the action week against excessive speed starting on Monday and the focus day next Friday, April 19th. Six other federal states only take part in one of the two campaigns, five in neither.
In individual countries such as Bavaria, most of the speed cameras that will be set up at the marathon on Friday are announced in advance. In Berlin, for example, people argue that the effects of previous actions were hardly measurable and were limited to the days of action. It is therefore better to rely on control pressure all year round, according to the ADAC traffic club, which is positive about the campaign's effect on road safety. If road users knew that they wouldn't get caught, discipline would suffer, says Michael Mertens from the police union, who says the effort is entirely justified. If you don't want to get caught,. you should pay particular attention to your speed in the new week. In. individual countries like Bavaria and Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, most. of theSpeedweek cameras that are set up are announced ahead of time.
