In just two days, federal highway patrol officers nationwide performed more than 15,000 breathalyzer tests to inhibit and identify drivers who had consumed alcohol before driving.
The application of so-called breathalyzer tests is part of Operation Natal, launched to inhibit traffic violations and ensure fluidity and road safety during the holiday. According to the agency, more than four thousand agents were mobilized to reinforce the ostensible road policing.
Higher incidence
The reinforcement of inspection is concentrated mainly near the points of federal highways with a higher incidence of serious traffic accidents and criminal occurrences. In addition to standby agents on the highways, the flow of vehicles is also monitored, in real time, by means of cameras, by the Command and Control Centers.
The action seeks to discourage undue overtaking, drunk driving, not using a seat belt, not wearing a helmet, speeding, using a cell phone while driving and other offenses that increase the risk of accidents in a period of the year when the number of vehicles on the country’s roads increases.
The Federal Highway Police (PRF) advises whoever is going to take the road to pay attention to good conduct, such as reviewing the vehicle, with special attention to the operation of mandatory equipment. And, in case of accidents or incidents, call emergency number 191.
