Changes have been made to the regulations regarding the interactions between traffic police officers and road users, as well as the use of special devices. These changes were stipulated in the Cabinet of Ministers' decision on July 17.

According to the previous version of paragraph 31 of the regulations, when using mobile photo radars and mobile complexes, the traffic police officer was required to show the driver the speed recorded by the device and, upon request, present the device's certificate (or a copy).

As Kun.uz previously reported, this provision allowed drivers to appeal administrative reports in court and have fines canceled. When mobile radars, commonly known as “three-legged” or usually installed in the traffic police's “Nexia-3” cars, recorded speeding, fines were legally challenged because drivers were not shown the recorded speed and the radar’s certificate. One driver even took the matter to the Supreme Court and ultimately won the case.

Now, paragraph 31 of the regulations has been amended. According to the new version, the procedure for imposing fines for violations detected by mobile photo radars and mobile complexes will be the same as for violations recorded by stationary photo and video recording devices.

This means that an administrative report will not be formalized, and the offender will not participate in the decision-making process regarding the imposition of fines.

Importantly, repeat offenses will not be taken into account. Thus, increased fines for repeated speeding violations will no longer be applied in any case.

According to Article 128-3 of the Administrative Liability Code, if drivers commit speed-related violations between 2 and 4 times within a year, they could lose their driving license for up to 2 years. However, these enhanced penalties did not apply to stationary radars. Now, this rule will also not apply to mobile radars.
