A great tourist movement is expected for the long weekend. The Atlantic coast will be one of the busiest destinations and, for this reason, the Road Safety Agency will increase controls
The long weekend begins with the expectation of a great tourist movement and controls will be intensified on the route to the Atlantic coast.
The National Road Safety Agency (ANSV) will carry out a new comprehensive control operation between today, Friday, November 15, and Tuesday, November 19, with the aim of guaranteeing safe travel.
The inspection points will be distributed in key locations such as the Buenos Aires – La Plata highway, RP 2, RP 11, Toll Dock Sud, Quilmes, Villa Gesell and Pinamar.
These operations are the result of collaboration between the national, provincial and municipal governments. Its main objective is to ensure the safe movement of those heading to the Atlantic Coast, in addition to reducing the rate of road accidents throughout the country.
The various controls will be carried out by agents from the different bases of the national organization and will have two types of modalities: fixed and random. The permanent posts will carry out a total of 29 comprehensive documentation and breathalyzer checks.
In addition, there will be 24 random patrol teams whose purpose will be to discourage the presence of “shoulders” and offer assistance en route to drivers who face any inconvenience during their journey.
Drivers who are caught committing traffic violations will be notified and fined with the corresponding report.
Documentation necessary to circulate
Before starting the trip, it is important that the driver has the following documents and safety items in order:
- National Identity Document (DNI).
- National Driver’s License.
- Green card (or blue card in force and authorized by the holder)
- Proof of current insurance.
- Proof of Mandatory Technical Review (RTO) or Vehicle Technical Verification (VTV)
- Patents placed visible, without alterations and in good condition.
- Fire extinguishers with current date and triangular beacons.
- How to travel with pets
The ANSV presented a series of tips for the transfer of pets in vehicles:
- Animals must always travel restrained, never loose, or in the front. Pets must travel in the back of the car and with harnesses (straps that can be attached to the seat belt).
- On long trips, it is advisable to stop every two hours so that pets can hydrate and walk for a while.
- Before embarking on the trip, consult with a veterinary professional to take the necessary precautions and avoid distractions for the driver.
