In Córdoba, a resolution updated the Fixed Unit by 2.7%, affecting increasing it from $2,109 to $2,165. This affects all provincial sanctions sanctions, ranging from minor infractions like smoking while driving to high-gravity offenses. offenses such as speeding or running red lights, which can now result in fines exceeding $4.3 million.
