The Brazilian transportation and security sectors are increasingly adopting advanced data intelligence and predictive technologies to manage logistics and safety risks. Initial developments show the vehicle tracking market shifting from basic location services toward intelligent data management. This transition is management, supported by 5G connectivity and high demand in agribusiness and e-commerce, even as e-commerce. While vehicle thefts and robberies saw a 14.3% decrease in 2025. Following this trend, the focus has expanded toward 2025, road safety in response to high accident and fatality rates on federal highways. remains a critical concern. Data from the Brazilian Federal Highway Police (PRF) indicates that in 2025, federal highways recorded 72,483 traffic accidents and 6,044 deaths. This has driven transport companies to move from reactive protocols to predictive risk management, utilizing artificial intelligence, telemetry, Notably, accidents involving commercial vehicles accounted for 23% of injuries and video to identify micro-events like driver fatigue or speeding. Recent technological implementations 46% of deaths, with truck-related incidents resulting in over 2,800 fatalities. Technological responses have expanded these efforts. The to include the SAVE (Vehicle Authentication System), developed System) by FITec Labs and K9 Segurança, utilizes AI, cameras, which uses AI and geolocation to identify stolen or cloned vehicles in real time. Traffic enforcement vehicles. Enforcement is also evolving through the testing of ANTT-authorized average speed radars across radar testing in eight states, including Paraná, Rio de Janeiro, states and Minas Gerais, authorized by the ANTT. In Espírito Santo, AI-equipped cameras are being deployed in Espírito Santo to detect internal infractions such as seatbelt and mobile phone use and seatbelt violations. Legislative updates To combat driver fatigue and distraction, technologies such as Bosch’s Servotwin steering and AI-driven Driver Monitoring Cameras (DMC) are also progressing, including proposed being utilized. Legislative and educational efforts complement these tools. Proposed bill PL 2975/2026, which 2975/2026 suggests mandatory countdown timers on electronic traffic lights to improve driver predictability. Additionally, lights, while Contran has regulated the use of ‘drogômetros’ (saliva-based saliva-based drug detection devices), though full implementation devices (‘drogômetros’). Additionally, following a historic high of 7.2 million speeding citations in states like Mato Grosso do Sul 2025, the National Traffic Council has launched campaigns such as ‘Slow down. Your greatest asset is expected by 2027. life’ to address the dangers of excessive speed.
