From September, the fines for driving too fast in the neighboring country are double. Up to 5000 euros can be due. The ADAC indicates this in a message. Since there is no uniform catalog of fines in Austria, the amount of the punishment is at the discretion of the respective authority, according to the AutoClub. The increased penal system applies from Wednesday, 1. September.

Flashed in Austria: It costs now

The ADAC lists what high -speed drivers and, above all, racers have to count on extreme lead foot in the future:

  • In the event of an exceeding by more than 30 km/h both in the urban and outside In the future, the penal system will amount to 150 to 5000 euros instead of 70 to 2180 euros as before, reports the club.
  • Those who are too fast in urban areas or is at least 50 km/h above the speed limit in the future will pay 300 to 5000 euros in the future. So far it was 150 to 2180 euros. In this case, a one -month driving ban also applies in Austria.
  • The ADAC also says: "From a speed crossing by more than 80 km/h in urban or 90 km/h outside, the offense is considered ‘under particularly dangerous conditions’ and is punished in addition to the fines with a borrow of six months in the Alpine Republic.

When does the holding test apply?

With simple fines of up to 365 euros, you can pay on the spot or later by a fine without the owner of the car to be determined. In addition, there is a criminal order, according to the ADAC. Not paying a criminal mandate after the vacation is of little use: "With Austria there is an agreement to enforce fines. This means that the punishment can also be collected by the German authorities from an amount of 25 euros", So the ADAC. However, one could object to a criminal order – not against the fine ticket itself – within two weeks.

  1. Just don’t go there anymore
    I was in Austria 2 or 3 times every year! Without lawn, but there are many side streets … In the meantime limited to 60 so that you have to go to the highway! Now I drive into the resin, free streets, good hotels and guest houses and good prices! I no longer let the Austrians rip off! Although I’m a fan of Chancellor.

    Is time that the significant exceeding of the permissible maximum speed also becomes a crime with us! I have never understood why it is so important to arrive one minute and three seconds earlier. If you are in a hurry, you just go out earlier!

    In Austria, crossing the permissible speed is a criminal offense and Germany must therefore become active. In Germany, exceeding the speed is an administrative offense and therefore Austria does not have to become active. So the Austrian mostly gets away in Germany.

  5. Only for Austrians?
    Marcel, where do you take the realization that the Austrian. Authorities the Austrian. motorist "spare"? On the subject "felt statistics": If about 90% dt on the Inntal Autobahn. Are on the go, then it is not surprising that the streets are distributed similarly. Since the locals usually know the places of controls better, 95: 5 would still be plausible.

  6. I’m already sorry for the poor neighbors, but
    It is astonishing how unerringly the Austrian police fishing drivers with foreign license plates from the traffic. If the estris z.B. in the FRG lawn (especially trucks), then of course this is i.O. From their point of view. It only helps to solve this problem: Draconian punishments for everyone (and finally also the Swiss power prices, who rarely adhere to the speed regulation – and certainly not at parking regulations – and collect on site immediately. When it comes to the money, then maybe the cash prises.

  7. This is pure rip -off
    Already behind the German border if you did not get a motorway Vingiette beforehand, because the first mōisanization in ōstreich is ready if you are ready on a ōStischer side on the highway and a descent only some time behind when the police is already for cash, This is strongly reminiscent of the methods in the GDR

  8. Nothing compared to Switzerland
    This is still nothing compared to the draconian measures in Switzerland! Anyone who was more than 21/25/25 km/h on motorways/outside/out of motorways there is at least 1 month of your driver’s license. From 25/30/35 km/h it is a criminal offense on which additional (!) Finnats (depending on the income, typical of several monthly wages) threaten to 1 year penalty up to 1 year. From 50/60/80 km/h, prison terms between 1 are mandatory..4 years, confiscation and expropriation of the vehicle and license withdrawal of at least 2 years.

  9. Of course that’s not a comparison
    The Swiss have always thought to be something special than the people of farmers. Only in contrast to ōStreich does the punishments also apply to Swiss, Weahrendcin ōstreich rip -off is in the demand for the demand, we should do the same in Germany with all the ō streams

  10. Chance for tightening in Germany
    was first wasted on pressure of the car lobby and associations. How big was the whine, you couldn’t get the driver’s license at 20 km/h more, etc. All speeders were sold as exemplary drivers who accidentally made a mistake. Simply laughable. The conditions on the streets in Germany are worrying. Speed requirements become aware and knowing that there are hardly any consequences, ignored immediately after the driver’s license test. The frenzy in closed places in particular is a plague and enormous danger to uninvolved. Hopefully this will soon be prevented by assistance systems.

  11. This damn frenzy …
    of these leisure shots is really annoying. As soon as you are on the highway, there are already the first accidents and the traffic jams. I say everything superfluous. Also on the A5 all the racer foreigners who want to extend their cars do not want to master it. Recently seen again again Alfa Romeo 4c with yellow license plate is totally broken across the highway.

  12. As soon as you are on the highway
    And the others are always to blame, they are the cause of the accident. Oh yes, the yellow Alfa, it was a cause or one by other damage ? Let’s start with the fairytale lesson.

  13. Should you also introduce us quickly
    Our pocket money punishments don’t scare us away anymore. 80 km/h bases basically 100, because the few lappische € (in this case is just € 30) – in the unlikely case to be caught at all – none of them. Also with 50 through the "30s zone" With € 35 €, it hardly costs the equivalent of half a tank filling. If there is a speed of 130 on the BAB, there is permanent all -round view and constant caution, since everything is between 100 and 160 km/h around you. In Austria, on the other hand, the whole thing is wonderfully relaxed, since everyone (with a view to their wallet) rolls evenly quickly. Everyone can observe at any border crossing. You cross the border line to D and the madness begins suddenly.

  14. Be careful only under certain circumstances?
    “If there is a speed of 130 on the BAB, there is permanent all -round view and constant caution, since everything is between 100 and 160 km/h around you.“ – They intend to refrain from these two basic behavior of permanent all -round views and constant caution as soon as everyone drives equally quickly (which, by the way, will never exist)?
