Despite the announcements in the run-up to the week of action, the police are catching many drivers.

But what penalties are there if you get caught during the speed camera marathon 2024?
This initially depends on where you were traveling too fast.

The fines have increased significantly in recent years.
In the city center it now starts at just under 60 euros - points in Flensburg are too fast from 21 km/h:
