For deputies, the use of radars in their current form only contributes to revenue and is not useful for traffic education.

Radar is an electronic device that allows you to detect objects at long distances despite darkness and bad weather. It is used to direct air and sea traffic and to detect and identify ships, planes and cars exceeding the permitted speed.

Electronic radars that are permanently installed on federal roads are normally used to check drivers' speed and impose fines on those who exceed the permitted limit. And a proposal approved by the Legislative Assembly (Alerj) last week could end the use of equipment on the streets.

Could this be the end of electronic radars on the roads?

This change in traffic rules was approved by Deputy Dr. Serginho (PL) proposed by Bill 5848/2022. After the approval of Alerj, it will be up to the state governor, Cláudio Castro (PL), to sanction or veto the future law, which will come into force in the state of RJ, depending on the opinion.

One to justify the need for the project, says deputy Dr. Serginho that the measure was designed to combat the so-called fines industry, contributes to revenue and is not intended for traffic education. This house today does a lot of justice to drivers, explained Dr. Serginho.

According to the bill, there should only be speed inspection based on Resolution 798/20 of the National Traffic Council (Contran). The standard stipulates that there must be horizontal and vertical road signs with information to drivers about speed control.

Furthermore, the PL requires that speed control on roads be carried out by mobile radar devices and with the supervision of a competent inspection Agent or Police Department.
