Police to relax speed camera fine threshold

The Estonian police are considering raising the minimum speed over the limit that results in a fine from 20 km/h to 23 km/h. This change could significantly reduce the number of speeding tickets issued, as approximately 45% of current fines are for minor infractions. The proposal aims to address concerns about excessive enforcement of minor speeding violations and potentially ease traffic penalties for drivers. It reflects an ongoing discussion about balancing road safety with practical enforcement measures.
