Brandenburg Police Launches Speed Enforcement to Combat Fatalities

During the summer holidays, Brandenburg police will intensify speed enforcement as part of the nationwide 'Speed Week' initiative. This effort targets specific roads known for high traffic, aiming to decrease the alarming rate of speed-related fatalities.

Similar campaigns are underway in other German states, where authorities conduct unannounced checks to ensure compliance with speed limits. The initiative, backed by the European Roads Policing Network, seeks to enhance road safety.

In parallel, the DGT in Spain is launching its own speed control campaign, deploying numerous radar units to monitor highways. Both campaigns underscore the urgent need for vigilance among drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians, as vulnerable road users constitute a significant portion of road fatalities.

Ultimately, these operations strive to foster safer driving habits and reduce accidents.
