The change in Brazilian Traffic Code (CTB) was established by Law No. 13,146

It has been in place since the beginning of the week the law that increases by 140% the amount of the fine for those who park in reserved spaces without proper authorization. The fine, which was R$ 53.20, rose to R$ 127.69 for those who park in spaces reserved for the disabled, elderly and pregnant women without having the right to do so. The offender will also receive five points on the driver's license. Before, it was three points.

The change in Brazilian Traffic Code (CTB) was established by Law No. 13,146, known as the Statute Person with Disabilities, which entered into force on Saturday (2). The change applies to all kinds of exclusive vague, including fire, police, and others. The measure is also valid in private parking lots where the inspection will take place the same way.

In addition, the violation is no longer considered average. With the change, park in dedicated spaces became serious offense.

To be eligible to park in a reserved seat, the law specifies that vehicles "shall display on site high visibility, the recipient credential, to be manufactured and provided by transit agencies, which will govern their characteristics and conditions of use".

The new legislation, called the Brazilian Law of Inclusion of People with Disabilities, ensures conditions for access to education and health care and establishes penalties for discriminatory attitudes towards this population.

Today in Brazil there are 45 million people with some form of disability. The law was enacted by the federal government in July and took effect this week, 180 days after publication in the Official Gazette.
