More than 1.3 million drivers were speeding in Lower Austria in 2023. Where the "busiest" speed cameras can be found and on which freeways and country roads drivers should rather take their foot off the accelerator.

There was a speed camera every 24 seconds on the roads between Enns and Leitha last year. This is because more than 1.3 million times a speeding driver ran into a fixed or mobile radar or was speeding in a section control area. This represents an increase of around 100,000 cases compared to 2022. The negative highlight was a 21-year-old who was speeding at 117 km/h on the A22. It was the first confiscation of a car since the StVO amendment came into force in March.
