Who has not even rushed across the intersection at "Tieforange"? Stupid only if documented by a speed camera or observed by an attentive policeman. A so-called red light violation can lead to severe penalties. Most red light violations probably happen unintentionally. Still fix at yellow on the traffic light, already it happened. However, since driving in red can also lead to dangerous situations and also serious traffic accidents, the offense in Germany will be punished accordingly severely. The legislator distinguishes here between the simple red light violation and the qualified red light violation. If the traffic light was red for a second, then it is a simple red light violation. That costs 90 Euro and a point in Flensburg.
High penalties for red light violations
However, if there is a risk to other road users, the penalty is 200 Euro plus two points in Flensburg and one month driving ban. If the traffic light has already been red for more than a second, there is a qualified red light violation. 200 makes Euro fine, two points in Flensburg and one month driving ban. If other road users endanger the fine increases to 320 Euro, with concomitant damage to 360 Euro.
Flashed at the traffic light
Most often, red light violations are detected by so-called "Blitzerampeln". Traffic lights equipped with a speed camera have induction loops embedded in the road. The technical equipment can not only be determined that a vehicle has entered the red light in the traffic light area, but also how long the traffic light has already shown red. The expensive photo from the "star box" will soon be sent to the red light sinner by mail.
Overrun stop line is not a red light violation
If you just drive over the stop line and stop the vehicle before it enters the danger zone of the traffic light system, this does not constitute a red light violation. In this case, they have only committed a stop line offense, which can result in a fine of 10 Euro. Luck! The condition is, however, that nobody was endangered.
Driving in yellow is also prohibited!
What many do not know: Driving is yellow also prohibited (Yellow light violation) as driving in red. Even if the crossing of the yellow traffic light in Germany in a sense "naturalized", this is by no means allowed. In the yellow light, wait for the next light signal in front of the traffic light - this is the order of the road traffic regulations. For driving in yellow 10 can be due to 15 Euro fine. However, braking and stopping at the stop line must be possible without danger. As a result, when the light suddenly changes from green to yellow, no one has to lay down full braking.
