The Minister of Transport, Jose Luis Faleroexplained that drivers who exceed the speed allowed on traffic routes Uruguay will first receive a “notification within the first 30 days” of implementation he radar system fixed. If they incur a new foul, that is, if they add a second, there will already be a sanction.
The economic sanctions will be by stripes, that is, by how much the speed limit is exceeded. Exceeding it by 20 km/h will have a value of 5 resettable units (UR), which is equivalent to 7,988 pesos at the current value. In case of passing between 21 and 30 km the value will be eight UR or 12,781 pesos at the current value.

For the case of the interbalnearia routekey access in the season since it crosses the spas of cannelloni and maldonadothere will be a speed limit of 75 km/h until near Parque del Plata.
“When we have a route passage through a populated center with urbanization on both sides it will be 45 km/h, in most places it will be 60 km/h and on those routes such as the Interbalnearia that have a service road or parallel streets there we can raise them to 75 km/h,” said the minister.
