Danger of lightning in Burbach: How to protect yourself from expensive fines!

On November 2, 2025, road traffic in Burbach in North Rhine-Westphalia is affected by a dangerous situation due to excessive speed. According to [news.de]. Speeding is recorded in a 60 km/h zone. The mobile radar control on site can react flexibly to the current danger situation.

The information about the speed controls is current as of 10:17 a.m. today. In order to ensure traffic monitoring, vehicle drivers are not allowed to use devices to detect or interfere with speed cameras. This particularly includes speed camera warning devices and laser jamming devices, while the use of a speed camera app on the smartphone while driving is not permitted. However, an externally installed radar detector is considered an administrative offense.

Speed ​​camera locations and penalties

A specific speed camera location is located in Burbach-Würgendord on the B54, near junction L531, in the direction of the motorway. According to derbussgeldkatalog.de, there are significant penalties for exceeding the speed limit of 26 km/h outside of urban areas. If the limit is exceeded once, the driver can expect a fine of EUR 150.00 and a point in the driving fitness register in Flensburg. Repeated violations within a year can result in a driving ban of one month.

The current amendment to the catalog of fines, which has been in force since November 9, 2021, has increased the fine for speeding on the B54 from EUR 80.00 to EUR 150.00. A study has also shown that around 56% of fine notices are incorrect, which complicates the legal framework for affected drivers.

Legal consequences and behavior in the event of speeding

The legal consequences of speeding are clearly regulated. Strict regulations apply during free times, especially when speeds exceed 26 km/h or more. For a fine of EUR 60 or more, a fine notice will be issued, which entails an additional procedural fee of at least EUR 28.50. This information is also confirmed by bussgeldportal.de.

Additional regulations apply to trucks over 3.5 tonnes and cars with trailers, which are subject to strict speed limits. The regulations are even stricter for drivers in their probationary period. In the event of repeated violations, tougher measures such as extending the probationary period or taking part in an advanced seminar are envisaged. In the case of medical emergencies, there may be exceptions to speeding restrictions, but these must be examined individually.
