Attention, Vienna! There's lightning here today - all about the new speed cameras!

Two mobile speed trap locations are active in Vienna today, November 10, 2025. How news.de reported, the speed cameras are positioned both in the Donaustadt in the KG Stadlau and in the city center on the Schottenring. A speed limit of 50 km/h applies in both locations and corresponding speed controls can be expected throughout the city.

The mobile speed cameras were registered this morning at 10:27 a.m. in Donaustadt on the A23 and at 10:24 a.m. on Schottenring. An interesting fact is that the authorities are data-driven when it comes to detecting speeding violations and continually update information. This enables targeted monitoring of traffic safety.

How does speed camera technology work?

Mobile speed traps are flexible tools to increase traffic safety. The Doppler effect is used, in which so-called electromagnetic waves are emitted and reflected back by the vehicles. If you exceed the speed limit, a photo of the vehicle will be taken as well bussgeldkatalog.net explained.

Those caught speeding must expect fines, which often flow into municipal budgets. They can also receive points in Flensburg or even driving bans. The targeted use of mobile speed cameras aims to improve driving behavior and combat the most common causes of accidents. There are also tolerance deductions: for laser devices this is 3 km/h or 3%, while radar devices accept a deduction of 5 km/h or 5%.
