Reflections on the project to no longer deduct points from the driver’s license of drivers guilty of minor speeding continue! https://t.co/w2bQX7OYx4

Almost all of us have already opened our mailbox and found an envelope with a stamp of the French Republic. And it’s never very fun at all. Especially when there is a PV hiding in it. Whether you expect it or not doesn’t really make a difference, because either way it’s obviously very annoying. But it may soon become history. So no, VPs won’t disappear unfortunately, that would be too good. On the other hand, fines on paper support, so. But they will, of course, be replaced by something else.
An automatic speed camera on the RD 137 in St Sulpice d’Arnoult has been scaring drivers in recent days by flashing as they obeyed the speed limit!
This radar was undergoing maintenance. Therefore, there will be no verbalization. Thanks to the whistleblowers!– Gendarmerie of Primorsky Charante (@Gendarmerie_017) September 16, 2021
Email soon?
Truth be told, it’s not exactly new. Since 2017, the Agency for the Automated Processing of Traffic Infractions (ANTAI), located in Rennes and responsible for processing violations, sends Dematerialized minutes. These are Electronic Penalty Notices, also known as e-ACOs. An email is then sent to the offender notifying them that a report has been sent to them. Just click on the link to access the mail, then pay the fine if the motorist recognizes the violation. It is also possible to download it in PDF format. Today there are already more of them 2.5 million e-ACOs which were sent to France.

More and more developed use
But until then, you had to give your email address to the police at the time of your arrest. This will change as from June next year penalty notices will be able to be sent to all fined motorists without interception. To do this, you must enter an email address during the registration process. At this time, we do not yet know if it will be possible to opt out of being sent by email, for those who prefer to have Paper report or, for example, without access to a computer.
Sometimes it happens that the radar highlights a speeding driver, but he does not receive a traffic ticket! https://t.co/eNzBECUAIE?utm_campaign=post-auto&utm_medium=twitter
