Speed Cameras in Sofia

Posted by admin on April 22, 2008

Traveling in a new city may be a bit of a challenge – not knowing the streets and the hints can cause you a lot of troubles with traffic police. Here is an updated list of all cameras in Sofia.Most of them monitor passing on red light while other monitor the speed. Usually the cameras take a picture of the registration number of the car. The owner of the car gets a notification via post to visit Traffic Police Offices. However if you rent a car you are most likely not to get anything.

Its important to note that unlike other countries , you won’t see warning signs before the cameras
