Speed cameras will now be visible in Spain

There are over 800 speed cameras set up on the Spanish roads, so make sure always to respect the speed limit to avoid being fined on your holidays.
Until now many speed cameras have been hidden, which has resulted in that many have got an unpleasant surprise in the form of a fine after finishing their holidays.
The Directorate General of Traffic (DGT) is now moving around on the speed cameras, so the majority will be placed on the roads where most accidents happen and they become visible for the driver.
The location of the cameras can be seen on DGTS website. Click here.Or you can see the location of the speed cameras in Malaga by clicking here. Another change which is affecting many drivers is that the DGT has changed the  ”margins of error” for when a speeding ticket is issued. Where previously it was possible to exceed the speed limit by 12-15 km/h, now it is only 7 km/h at speeds below 100km/h.  At speeds above 100 km/h the limit is set at 7% excess before a fine is issued. Here are some examples: Speed limit 50km/h            – speed camera will fine at 58km/h Speed limit 80 km/h         – speed camera will fine at 88km/h Speed limit 100km/h     – speed camera will fine at 109 km/h Speed limit 120 km/h     – speed camera will fine at 131 km/h We would like to draw your attention to two stretches where the speed cameras often fine many clients.
One stretch is west of Malaga on the A-7 Faro de Calaburras, Mijas Costa.  On the road from km 205.2 to km 200.1 the maximum speed is 80km/h.  The speed cameras will be calculating an average speed over this stretch and if exceeded a fine will be issued.  This applies the direction Fuengirola towards Marbella and vice versa.
The other stretch is east of Malaga on A-7 at the tunnel of Torrox from km 287.6 to km 288.7.
Here the speed limit is set at 100 km/h.
Once again we ask you to respect the speed limits and your holidays will not be ruined with a speeding fine that easily could have been avoided. UPDATED 05/11/18. One of our readers have been so kind to forward the below images which shows the MA-20 to Malaga (coming from Nerja) where the radar says 80 km/h. (Credit: Peter )
