Source: Traffic fines to be backdated: Minister – heraldTrust Freddy-Herald CorrespondentGOVERNMENT has warned motorists that traffic cameras installed in Harare are operational and fines for all offences captured will be back-dated once Treasury finalises banking arrangements.
Home Affairs and Cultural Heritage Minister Kazembe Kazembe said the Electronic Traffic Management System was already operational and accumulating evidence against offenders.
Responding to questions in the Senate on Thursday, Minister Kazembe said the new system has been recording offences since going live early this year and fines shall be back-dated.
All such evidence is being collated, as an offence does not lapse with time,” Minister Kazembe said.
“As of last week, we had recorded a total of about 1,1 million vehicles that had violated traffic laws, and these were recorded on the various traffic cameras installed across the city,” he said.
