Electronic traffic enforcement implementation

Overview

Local authorities in Argentina and Spain are deploying electronic traffic monitoring systems to enhance road safety.

In Empedrado, Corrientes, the city council approved an ordinance for a Municipal Electronic Preventive Inspection and Road Safety System on National Route 12. This system will utilize speed cameras and devices to monitor mandatory lights. The municipality is authorized to contract equipment maintenance for four years, with a stipulation that contractor pay cannot be tied to a percentage of collected fines. Implementation awaits technical approval from national road safety and directorate agencies.

In Navarra, Spain, a fixed speed camera on the A-12 near Zizur Mayor has been authorized to begin issuing fines following a multi-month testing phase. The government maintains the installation serves as a deterrent to reduce accidents at urban access points and critical intersections.
