The section control is carried out at the request of the local mobility committee. People drive far too fast in the center of Beselare. The data from the police and municipal measurements also confirm this. Major violations are observed especially early in the morning and after the evening rush hour. Section control must be abolished.
From March, the average speed will be calculated on the N303 Wervikstraat/Beselarestraat between the cemetery and De Warande. The cameras at both places take a photo of every license plate that drives by. The timing determines how fast the vehicle was traveling. Anyone driving between 56 and 60 kilometers per hour will receive a GAS fine of 53 euros. From 60 kilometers per hour, you pay 11 euros extra per kilometer that you drive too fast. From 70 kilometers per hour, the violation is reported to the police or the public prosecutor’s office and they determine the amounts.
