Police issued fines totalling HUF 7,216,366,000 for these offences. This figure refers to fines imposed rather than the amount actually paid.
Under current rules, fixed speed cameras must be marked with advance warning signs. The figures attributed to Hungary’s National Police Headquarters, known as ORFK, show that many drivers still exceed the speed limit despite those warnings.
Nagykőrösi út tops the list
The speed camera recording the highest number of offences nationwide is located outside 46 Nagykőrösi út in Budapest’s District XIX.
Several other Budapest locations appear on the national list. They include the inbound and outbound sections of the M3 motorway at the Szerencs utca junction in District XV, the inbound section of the M1–M7 motorways at the 6 km + 300 metre marker in District XI, and the camera outside 185 Nagykőrösi út in District XX.
The ORFK list also includes cameras outside Budapest, on sections of the M2 road, routes 42 and 67, and the M3 motorway.
Figures from the previous two years
In 2025, cameras recorded 349,126 speeding offences in Budapest, resulting in fines of more than HUF 18.4 billion. In 2024, 228,481 cases were recorded and fines exceeded HUF 11.7 billion.
The 2026 figures cover only the first six months of the year and therefore do not represent a full-year total.
Strong support for average-speed enforcement
According to Dávid Vitézy, Hungary’s minister for transport and investment, more than 300,000 people completed the latest road safety questionnaire. Of those who responded, 72 per cent supported the introduction of average-speed enforcement.
