A public consultation was opened to hear from the population about the possible implementation of radars on roads in Divinópolis. See below how to participate. The initiative comes after a survey showed more than 14,000 traffic violations in just five days of monitoring at two intersections in the city's central region.
The inspection by the Department of Traffic and Transport (Settrans) took place at the intersections of Avenida 1º de Junho and Rua Pernambuco and Avenida Getúlio Vargas and Rua Goiás.

At the time, more than 780,000 vehicle crossings were recorded and approximately 3,000 incidents per day.
Red light advance leads records
The data shows that running red lights leads the number of registered irregularities, with 75%, followed by speeding and stops on pedestrian crossings.
According to City Hall, the equipment used in the study has technology capable of carrying out automatic fines, but was only used for monitoring and data collection.
The balance also shows that:
The intersection of Avenida Getúlio Vargas and Rua Goiás concentrated the largest number of red light advances;
While Avenida 1º de Junho and Rua Pernambuco had the highest incidence of speeding.
How to participate?
Residents can give their opinion on the project until June 15th, using the Divinópolis City Hall app or the municipal administration website.
Settrans is evaluating the possibility of enabling electronic inspection equipment at strategic points, such as 1º de Junho, Getúlio Vargas and Magalhães Pinto avenues, in addition to Pernambuco and Goiás streets.
