Vienna is mobile: These 4 speed traps are monitoring traffic today!
Today, September 28, 2025, four mobile radar devices will roll through the city in Vienna to increase traffic safety and punish speeding. The devices are used in the most well-known places to warn drivers to reduce their speed and stick to the applicable speed limits. Loud News.de are the specific locations of the speed cameras:
- Wagramer Straße (1220 Wien, KG Kaisermühlen) – Tempolimit 50 km/h, gemeldet um 16:31 Uhr.
- Esslinger Hauptstraße (1220 Wien, KG Essling) – Tempolimit 50 km/h, gemeldet um 13:43 Uhr.
- Hadikgasse (1140 Wien, Penzing, Abtbergen) – kein Tempolimit angegeben, gemeldet um 14:54 Uhr.
- Hietzinger Kai (1130 Wien, KG Ober St. Veit im Bereich BP) – kein Tempolimit angegeben, gemeldet um 11:20 Uhr.
Speeding remains one of the most common causes of traffic accidents, which is why the city's traffic service urges all road users to stick to the set speed limits. These preventive measures are intended to help make roads safer and prevent accidents.
New technologies for more security
Modern radar boxes, such as those now used in Vienna, use laser measurement and their appearance can hardly be distinguished from conventional devices. They are strategically placed in particularly dangerous places to increase both speed control and road safety, explains ÖAMTC. The club also points out that a lower measurement tolerance applies: at speed limits below 100 km/h the tolerance is only 3 km/h, at higher speeds it is 3%.
Another aspect: The new radar boxes can flash in both directions, depending on the location and traffic conditions. This should ensure comprehensive monitoring. The well-known locations include the Inner Währinger Belt and the Southeast Tangente (A23), where there is often a high volume of traffic.
The numbers speak volumes
The road safety statistics provided by destatis.de The aim is to provide a clear picture of accidents on our roads. This data is essential for legislation and the development of traffic education as well as infrastructure policy.

But it is also up to each and every one of us to drive responsibly and adhere to the applicable regulations. This is the only way to ensure long-term safety in road traffic. After all, every moment in the city is precious – and safe!
