Speeding on the A8: Where speeding is becoming expensive today!
Nowadays, road traffic on the A8 motorway, which stretches from the German-Luxembourg to the German-Austrian border, is a sensitive issue for many drivers. Today, September 3, 2025, two sections are particularly in focus for speed enforcement. Loud news.de Speed cameras were reported in Brunnthal and Friolzheim, with the federal police continually checking the speed of the vehicles.
A speed camera was registered in Brunnthal, Munich district, at 8:56 a.m. Just an hour earlier, at 7:37 a.m., a speedometer was also discovered in Friolzheim, in the Enz district of Baden-Württemberg. This monitoring has its reasons: Driving too fast can not only lead to fines, but also to the driver's license being lost more quickly than many would like.
Risks of speeding
Anyone who drives too fast on the A8 runs the risk of being confronted with fines or even driving bans. The Road Traffic Act (StVO) regulates the punishment of such violations in Germany. But it's not just the permanently installed speed cameras that are a problem; mobile controls are also becoming more and more common.
- Bußgelder bei Geschwindigkeitsüberschreitungen:
- Bis 20 km/h zu schnell: kein Bußgeld, keine Punkte
- Ab 21 km/h zu schnell: mindestens 100 Euro und ein Punkt
- Ab 26 km/h zu schnell: Fahrverbot möglich
The A8 is not only one of the main traffic arteries in southern Germany, but also a hotspot for speed controls. Fixed speed cameras can be found in Irschenberg, Leonberg and Stuttgart, among others. Mobile speed cameras, on the other hand, can often be found in construction site areas and near cities. The locations near the Merzig-Wellingen and Stuttgart exits are particularly popular, with drastically lower speed limits of often 60 or 120 km/h.
Road traffic regulations
To avoid unnecessary problems, road users should strictly adhere to the speed limits. While speed camera warnings are permitted on the radio, speed camera apps and radar detectors are strictly prohibited while driving. There is at least a little relief for smartphone users: they can stay on while driving as long as the warning function in navigation apps is deactivated.
The A8, which is 505 kilometers long in total, offers space for many road users. The kilometer counting begins at the Saarland-Rhineland-Palatinate state border with km 0 and continues to the Austrian border. With a recommended speed of 130 km/h and frequent speed limits, you should always have a good hand in adjusting your driving speed to avoid falling into the clutches of the inspectors. The motorway remains a popular but also risky place for high-speed drivers, hence the appeal from the authorities: remain foresighted and considerate!
