Are you accused of the Flensburg fines office of having exceeded the maximum speed permitted here outside built-up areas of 70 km / h?
The hearing sheet is then followed by a notice of fines within three to six weeks. Its penalties can be substantial. In addition to a fine, there is a risk of a point if the speed is exceeded by 21 km / h and an additional month’s driving ban from 26 km / h. Novice drivers must expect an extension of the trial period and participation in a paid advanced seminar.
However, it doesn’t have to come to that. An experienced defense attorney can save you the impending fine, points and driving ban. Because the PoliscanSpeed laser measuring device used here provides the best arguments for the success of your objection.
This speed camera has been subject to massive criticism by the specialized courts since it was first used. In the meantime, the entire software has been replaced. The basic difficulties in determining the speed remained, however.
Measurements are made with the aid of emitted laser pulses. These are reflected by the arriving vehicles and sent back to the device. The speed is calculated with the help of the values obtained from this. If the limit value is exceeded, the camera is triggered.
However, extensive test series have shown that incorrect data processing is present in at least half of all measurements. The result is speed information that does not match the actual speed being driven. This measurement error can also occur with your measurement.
In addition, in over 50% of all measurements, the data is obtained outside the permissible measuring range. This serious violation of the device approval can lead to a ban on gathering evidence.
The speed camera also has difficulty assigning it in confusing traffic situations, such as overtaking maneuvers or driving in a convoy. The fine department is then unable to prove in legal proceedings that the specified speed was actually driven by the car shown.
For a precise measurement, the exact setting of the scan angle is essential. This regulates the setting for the existing road gradient. However, this is where most of the errors occur when adjusting the device. However, a deviation of only one degree automatically leads to excessive measurements.
This is one of the reasons why the manufacturer expressly requests that the measurement officers be trained directly on the device. If the relevant evidence is not in the file, the information cannot be used as a basis for an effective administrative fine.
If the calibration of the device has expired, the entire series of measurements is canceled and the person concerned acquitted.
This is only a small selection of the errors that can be found when evaluating your raw measurement data and measurement protocols.
Attorney Andreas Junge therefore obtains a technical expert opinion for your measurement process.
This is the basis for applications for evidence with which the inaccuracy of your specific measurement is proven to the responsible local court in Flensburg.
An acquittal follows or the proceedings are at least discontinued.
In this case, you will be spared points in the driving aptitude register (formerly the central traffic register) in Flensburg or even a driving ban.
If you have legal protection insurance, you will not incur any costs for the entire procedure.
Important: Report to a lawyer specializing in regulatory offense law at an early stage, ideally when you have received a hearing from the authority. The sooner you report, the more effective the defense. The location in another federal state is not an obstacle.
