Blitz marathon: Where it is now flashed in the Hochsauerland and Soest

Arnsberg/Hochsauerlandkreis. The upcoming speed controls in the Hochsauerlandkreis and the adjacent district of Soest again awaken the awareness of road safety among the drivers. The measures for speed monitoring, which will be announced in the coming days, are the focus of the discussion about the safety in road traffic.

planned speed controls

In the days from July 29 to August 2, 2023, speed measurements are carried out in several locations. Drivers in the region should be particularly attentive, since the Hochsauerlandkreis and the district of Soest publish the exact locations of the controls in advance. The control locations are:

  • Monday, July 29: Arnsberg, Bömerstraße; Brilon, Möhnestrasse.
  • Tuesday, July 30: Meschede, Pulverturmstrasse; Olsberg-Antfeld, Dorfwiese; Soest-Lampen, Werler Landstrasse (L 969).
  • Wednesday, July 31: Bestwig-Heringhausen, Bestwiger Straße; Marsberg, Bahnhofstrasse; Warstein-Suttrop, Plaßkamp.
  • Thursday, August 1: Eslohe-Sieperting, L519; Marsberg-Westheim, Kasseler Straße.
  • Friday, August 2: Arnsberg, Hellefelder Straße; Hallenberg, Nuhnestrasse; Werl-Westönnen, Weststrasse.

The importance of the subject of traffic safety

The announcement of these measures is of far -reaching importance for traffic safety in the region. By publishing the locations, drivers can be encouraged to reduce their speed and thus avoid potential accidents. The Hochsauerlandkreis points out that controls can also take place in other places, this also applies to weekends and public holidays. The police do not offer preliminary information on the measuring points, which creates a certain degree of unpredictability.

Financial consequences of speed violations

Another important aspect is the financial consequences associated with speed violations. The ADAC automobile club explains that if there are flashes, warning funds between five and 55 euros can be imposed. From an amount of 60 euros, one speaks of a fine that is pursued by a formal procedure and that additional administrative fees of 28.50 euros are drawn.

driving bans and points in the traffic central register

The amount of the punishment varies depending on the severity of the violation. In closed towns, stricter regulations apply: A driving ban threatens at 31 km/h above the permitted speed. This is only the case with a surplus of 41 km/h. This shows how important it is to observe the speed limits in order to avoid both financial burdens and security risks.

FAZIT

The announced speed controls in the Arnsberg and Hochsauerland district region are an important step to increase traffic safety. Drivers should be aware of the possible consequences and drive responsibly. Ultimately, all road users benefit from a secure driving style and responsible use of speed limits.
