The National Toll Management (NTM) is undertaking large-scale organizational and technical measures to improve road control and safety. From mid-July 2025, experts launched a major project to expand the functionality of the electronic toll system.
The data processing analytical group achieved significant progress in countering attempts to avoid road tolls. In a short one-month period - from July 15 to August 15, over 1,500 vehicles with manipulated registration plates were identified. All owners received the respective legal sanctions.
A key point in the new strategy is enhanced interaction with the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MIA). The system generates evidentiary materials for various categories of road violations. In just weeks, more than 1,600 evidence packages were provided for improper use of emergency lanes.
Particularly impressive is the functionality introduced on August 12 for registering drivers without seat belts. In the first few days, 170 such cases were documented, highlighting the seriousness of road safety issues.
NTM experts emphasize that all new capabilities have been achieved by upgrading existing technological solutions, without additional budget expenditures. This approach demonstrates effective management of public resources.
In the near future, the system plans to expand its control functions. Plans include monitoring aggressive driving, tracking vehicle distances, and providing current road information.
Among the priority tasks are monitoring meteorological conditions and road surface conditions. The NTM team is working on implementing these innovative solutions, which are expected to be a reality in the coming months.
A telling example of the need for such control is a documented case of a bus driver operating a vehicle without a seat belt and simultaneously talking on a mobile phone - behavior that endangers the lives of dozens of passengers.
The new technological solutions demonstrate a modern approach to road safety, combining highly effective technological control and care for the lives of traffic participants.
