The Directorate of Public Prosecutions (DPP) has given the City the go-ahead to prosecute unlicenced vehicles.
Cape Town - Owners of unlicenced vehicles will soon start receiving fines in the post. That’s because the Directorate of Public Prosecutions has given the City the go-ahead to prosecute unlicenced vehicles via fixed Automated Number Plate Recognition cameras.
Now, the Cape Town Traffic Service will start using the fixed Average Speed Over Distance cameras to enforce unlicenced vehicles. The City’s service provider has upgraded its software and introduced additional technology that will enable the automatic generation of evidence files and notices to be sent to vehicle owners.
"We have hundreds of thousands of vehicles on our roads. Not all of them are licenced, and for varying reasons. While some motorists are simply forgetful about the so-called ‘life admin’, others have amassed black marks against their names on the eNaTIS because of unpaid fines and outstanding warrants, which means they can’t renew their licence until they settle their traffic debt."
