Lightning strikes in Munich: Where the speed cameras are lurking today!

There's really something going on in Munich today! As of September 17, 2025, there will be six locations where the speed of road users will be checked. These mobile flash systems are an important part of efforts to improve road safety that have been carried out since the 1950s. Whether cars, trucks, bicycles or pedestrians – the police and regulatory authorities always keep a close eye on compliance with the rules in order to avoid accidents.

Lightning check locations change frequently, so it's important to stay up to date. The mobile radar control takes place today, among other places, on Marsopstrasse in Pasing-Obermenzing. The speed limit here is 30 km/h and the last report of this was at 7:09 p.m. Other locations include Plinganserstrasse, where 50 km/h is permitted, and Heilmannstrasse, with a limit of 40 km/h, reported at 5:57 p.m. Drivers are also scrutinized on Meyerbeerstrasse and Schlierseestrasse.

Continuous monitoring for greater security

Such speed controls are no coincidence - they have very specific goals. The national catalog of offenses stipulates that speeding will result in fines, points in Flensburg and possibly even driving bans. This is also the reason why mobile speed cameras are used particularly in places where locally known drivers can be encouraged to reduce their speed. Mobile control is often more effective because it can be set up in flexible locations.

A look at the speed camera map shows that there are over 52,000 permanently installed radar devices in Germany. These are a supplement to mobile devices and rely on longer-term monitoring of speeding. Scientific studies have shown that stationary speed cameras are often less effective when it comes to preventative measures - the clarity means that many drivers press the accelerator again immediately after passing these speed cameras.

The different types of lightning controls

But technology has also changed in recent years. In addition to classic radar devices, laser measuring devices and video surveillance systems are being used more and more frequently. These techniques provide precise measurements without distracting flash and allow speeding violations to be checked quickly. A variety of techniques are used in Munich to ensure a safe driving experience.

Anyone who does not adhere to the regulations must expect the corresponding consequences. In particular, novice drivers who drive even just 21 km/h above the permitted limit must expect an extension of their probationary period and an advanced seminar. One more reason to always keep an eye on the speed limits!

Overall, one thing remains clear: whether you are driving on one of the streets mentioned above or subjecting yourself to a speed camera check somewhere else, the best thing is always to keep an eye on your speed and follow the rules. Not only will you get to your destination safely, but it will also save you money!
