The Ministry of Mobility and Transportation (SMT) in Puebla announced that it will implement a program to prevent misuse of foreign license plates.
Given the use of these vehicles to avoid violations, she mentioned that it will be implemented starting in the second half of the year.
The head of the Ministry of Mobility and Transportation, Silvia Tanús Osorio, stated that the strategy to prevent the misuse of foreign license plates in cars owned by Puebla residents is not about revenue collection.
According to Silvia Tanús, the goal is to ensure the safety of pedestrians and drivers, who often speed.
I don’t want to give away what we’re going to do with cars with license plates from other states, but we do want to implement a program to prevent these occurrences in the second half of the year.”
The official explained that among the mechanisms to detect if the owners are from Puebla, there will be a record of violations, since they tend to accumulate a large number of violations.
Tanús Osorio commented that those who will assist in the detection of these types of vehicles will be the Traffic Agents, whose training begins this May 12. Of the number of agents, she specified that 355 will be distributed throughout the state of Puebla.
Another point addressed by the state official is the discovery of alleged facilitators for obtaining a driver’s license in Puebla.
Silvia Tanús Osorio acknowledged that there are social media profiles dedicated to promoting this type of procedure, which turns out to be false.
After that, she urged people not to fall into this type of fraud, since each license comes with security measures. Specific security measures.
He added that fraudsters request requirements that the agency doesn’t need, so if they ignore them and agree, they will have to complete the process twice.
If they make things too easy, if they offer them very simple things, it means it’s not legal, and sooner or later they will pay for the service twice.
Tanús Osorio indicated that the number of frauds targeting drivers has increased in recent months, which is why he asked them to check before falling for it. These are usually attractive and easy offers to hook victims.
It’s worth mentioning that these types of “procedures” are detected mainly on social media and are usually profiles dedicated to this.
