Drivers will not receive paper tickets for traffic violations in the second half of the current fiscal year (starting Sept. 22), when the Traffic Police switches to e-ticketing.
“E-ticketing is a new, improved and efficient way of issuing traffic tickets,” General Kamal Hadianfar, the national Traffic Police chief, told IRNA.
For the nationwide implementation of the system, smart devices will be distributed among police officers, he added.
Comparing the conventional paper ticketing with the electronic method, he added, "The former has almost no benefits, while e-ticketing enables the officers to check almost all the information of a particular car, including the driver's ID, traffic violation background and the vehicle's ownership and insurance status simply by entering the car's plate number or the driver's license number."
Whether or not the officer stops the violators, they will be able to send the license plate number of offending vehicles and type of contravention directly to the citation system’s database.
