Brazilian preferential parking legislative measures

Overview

Legislative efforts in Brazil are focusing on expanding preferential parking protections and regulations. In the Chamber of Deputies, Bill 3327/26 proposes voluntary partnerships between private parking owners and traffic authorities to ensure spaces reserved for people with disabilities are used correctly through awareness and reporting. If passed, the National Traffic Council (Contran) would establish implementation rules, though private companies would lack enforcement or punitive authority.

At the municipal level, Poços de Caldas has enacted Law No. 10.163. This law mandates that at least 2% of spaces in public and collective-use private parking lots, such as supermarkets and shopping centers, be reserved for pregnant women and people with children up to two years old. Beneficiaries are required to use specific identification stickers provided by local authorities, and establishments that fail to comply face warnings and potential daily fines for repeat offenses.
