The Ministry of Internal Affairs drew attention to the fact that in order to improve road safety, the traffic police actively uses the capabilities of the Republican system for monitoring public safety. First of all, cameras are used to record gross traffic violations, including driving at a prohibitive traffic light signal.

Each intersection where violations are recorded is marked with an information plate, and the number of such places increases monthly.
