At AMS passport control, persons flagged for some kind of civil debts/fines does take place rather routinely. National database checks too.

National database checks.
It would be Swiss authorities trying to collect Swiss fines.
But in the OP’s case, it’s a German fine, and so it would be a situation of whether the Germans go for national database checks for common speeding violations. And I don’t recall encountering German national database checks at German ports flagging for this.
SIS flagging for moving violation fines? While some may love that, it’s not an issue like it is with some of the national database checks.
