A Change in Traffic Enforcement Allows Agents to Fine Unlicensed Vehicles Without an Approach. This Can Result in Multiple Traffic Fines for the Same Driver Before They Are Even Notified.

Drivers are being fined repeatedly for lack of licensing and only find out upon receiving notifications. In some cases, the debt has already snowballed. A quiet change in traffic fines has caught many drivers off guard. This article explains this change.

Change in Law Allows Traffic Fines for Lack of Licensing Without an Approach

Until January 1, 2023, sanctioning for unlicensed vehicles required the driver’s approach. This has changed. The Brazilian Traffic Enforcement Manual has been amended, and this infraction can now be identified without the need to stop the vehicle. Many drivers are still unaware of this new reality of traffic fines.

With the new rule, the traffic agent can check the system upon seeing a vehicle. If it is found that the vehicle is unlicensed, they can issue the fine remotely. This practice differs from violations such as expired driver’s license or driving under the influence of alcohol, which still require an approach. However, most infractions, like running a red light, already did not require a stop.

The Real Risk

The current legislation allows a driver with an unlicensed vehicle to be fined multiple times. They may pass by one agent and be fined, and on another road, by another agent, receive a new sanction for the same reason. This can happen several times before the driver receives the first notification at home. Traffic fines can accumulate quickly.

The change in law did not come with clear guidelines on limits for these successive fines. Traffic experts point out that there should be a more specific regulation. One suggestion would be that a new fine for the same reason could only occur after the driver is notified of the first. Currently, many reports confirm the occurrence of multiple traffic fines for lack of licensing without any approach.

The Real Risk

A village with 115 inhabitants wants new residents: it offers a house, a job, up to 44 thousand euros in benefits, almost free rent, an annual grant of 8 thousand euros for 3 years, and a 20 thousand euro incentive for businesses in the mountains of Italy.

Seven world powers including the US, China, and Russia are spending €22 billion on a reactor in the south of France that aims to confine plasma at 150 million degrees Celsius, ten times the temperature of the Sun’s core, using a magnetic field capable of lifting an entire aircraft carrier.

With a wingspan of 152 meters, 76 tires, and a capacity to carry 1,270 tons, the Boeing Pelican was the giant “flying ship” that promised to cross oceans close to the water on an invisible air cushion beneath its wings.

Elon Musk’s internet comes to mobile: Starlink technology connects smartphones without an antenna via satellite, works even without carrier signal, already costs just US$10 extra in the US, and could arrive in Brazil as an included benefit.

While countries spend billions to draw water from the sea, a Nobel-winning scientist creates a container-sized machine that extracts up to 1,000 liters per day from dry air and uses ultrasound to release water in minutes, even in the middle of the desert.

After 16 years and almost 600 prototypes, a Chinese inventor unveils the world’s smallest and cheapest manned jet, at just 3.80 meters long and costing US$7.2 thousand in materials.

Belgium will sink 23 giant concrete caissons, each weighing 22,000 tons, in the North Sea to build the world’s first artificial energy island 45 km off the coast, forming offshore electrical walls.

British train powered solely by battery debuts with passengers after 22 months of testing, exceeds 320 km on a single charge, and threatens to retire diesel on lines without complete electrification.

Alert from the world’s largest oil company: blockade in the Strait of Hormuz removes 1 billion barrels from the market and may take time to normalize.

A city of 3,500 inhabitants in the Midwest of Santa Catarina is home to 33 wineries and accounts for 70% of all wine produced in the state, surpassing traditional hubs like São Joaquim, while the number of Santa Catarina manufacturers grew 29% in six years.

The largest half-timbered construction in Brazil this century is taking shape in Guabiruba without a single nail or screw, with 270 square meters of noble wood fitted piece by piece, where each beam can weigh 300 kilograms, and it will all be the headquarters of Papai Noel do Mato.

Ypê was born in 1950 in a soap factory in the interior of São Paulo, launched Brazil’s first transparent dishwashing liquid, bought Assolan and Atol, put TV stars in commercials, and now faces Anvisa ordering products to be recalled due to contamination.
