Speed recorder for maritime surveillance: instead of 80 vehicles, as much as 155 km/h

In the framework of intensified traffic monitoring, police in Maribor identified numerous speeding violations. The most notable case involved a driver who exceeded the speed limit of 80 kilometers per hour by driving at 155 kilometers per hour on a section of road outside the city. The operation was part of the European-wide 'Speed' initiative aimed at improving road safety by detecting excessive speeds and other dangerous driving behaviors. Police conducted checks using the 'Chain' methodology, which involves multiple consecutive speed checks on roads where speeding incidents are common. During the operation, they recorded 65 instances of exceeding maximum allowed speeds and four cases of improper mobile phone usage while driving. The police reiterated their warning to drivers to adjust their speed according to limits, traffic conditions, and personal capabilities, emphasizing that inappropriate speed remains one of the leading causes of severe traffic accidents.
