Starting from 12 AM on Tuesday, two new speed radars have been activated on the Índio Tibiriçá (SP-031) highway in Suzano and the Mogi-Salesópolis (SP-088) highway in Biritiba-Mirim, Brazil. These installations are part of an ongoing effort by the São Paulo State Highway Department (DER-SP) to enhance road safety through monitored vehicle speeds. With these additions, the region now hosts a total of 16 radars across state highways targeting speeding.

The first radar is located at km 54,904 on the Índio Tibiriçá highway, enforcing a speed limit of 40 km/h in both directions. Similarly, the radar on the Mogi-Salesópolis highway is positioned at km 70,225, also maintaining the same speed restriction. The implementation of these radars aims to improve compliance with speed limits, thereby reducing the potential for road accidents and enhancing overall traffic safety within the Alto Tietê region.

The introduction of these new radars reflects a broader strategy by DER-SP to increase monitoring on critical roadways, aiming to deter speeding and promote safer driving behaviors among motorists. As observers have noted, such measures may have significant implications for traffic management in the region, as they are expected to lead to increased compliance and a reduction in road incidents, aligning with public safety initiatives and governmental objectives in improving transportation infrastructure in the state.
