Munich’s Fixed Speed Cameras Cluster in Tunnels, Many Now Using Infrared

Overview

• A new roundup maps the main permanent enforcement sites on the Mittlerer Ring tunnels, the A99 Aubinger Tunnel, and key arterial junctions across the city.
• Prominent locations include Petueltunnel, Richard‑Strauss‑Tunnel, Heckenstaller‑Tunnel, Luise‑Kiesselbach‑Tunnel, Landshuter Allee, and stretches of the B304 such as Dachauer Straße and Kreillerstraße/Baumkirchner Straße.
• Many tunnel cameras operate with infrared technology that produces no visible flash, so drivers may not notice being photographed.
• Speed limits at monitored spots are often lower than typical, with many Mittlerer Ring tunnels capped around 60 km/h and the A99 Aubinger Tunnel commonly signed at about 80 km/h.
• Some fixed systems also capture red‑light violations at accident‑prone intersections, and with no official daily list of locations, drivers rely on interactive maps and media while mobile checks occur without prior notice; devices require PTB approval and regular calibration, and violations can lead to fines, points, and driving bans.
