Zimbabwe plans to use more breathalyzers at roadblocks to prevent drunk driving accidents. The government will also add a smart traffic system through a partnership with Dubai-based Vitronic Machine Vision Middle East, which plans to invest about $80 million in the project.
Ministers Kazembe Kazembe and Felix Mhona announced the shift toward electronic traffic management. They said technology treats everyone equally, regardless of status or connections. Police roadblocks will continue operating as the new system rolls out.
The government recently received the breathalyzers it ordered earlier. Officials want citizens to report dangerous drivers they see on the roads. They believe public cooperation helps make roads safer for everyone.
Under the new enforcement plan, authorities promise strict penalties for reckless drivers. The technology aims to reduce accidents, traffic jams, and corruption in the transportation system. Officials say the changes ensure that nobody escapes punishment for breaking traffic laws.
