Autonomous Notification for Traffic Violations from Cameras

September 4, 2025

There are currently 6,000 cases in court related to unpaid fines from traffic cameras. The Ministry of Transport suggests new procedures for informing drivers via SMS and email, making it mandatory to notify them. Criminal prosecution for non-compliance will be a last resort, with penalties often being double or triple. There are issues concerning liability in cases of rented vehicles, as companies express concerns about identifying offending drivers. The legislation being amended aims to facilitate the handling of traffic violations more effectively.
