SAO PAULO - The deadline for mandatory installation of the monitoring system and anti-theft on new vehicles has been delayed. The measure is dragging on since 2007 and was scheduled for August 15 but was extended to January 2013, when 20% of new cars and trucks produced in the country, will have installed a blocking system tracking SIMRAV (Integrated Monitoring and Automatic Registration of Vehicles).
The remaining vehicles will be gradually implemented until January 2014, when the deadline. For cars and trucks ever built, the installation is optional, but those interested in getting the system should hire a private company.
Reviews
As Contran (National Traffic Council) was questioned in court by federal prosecutors because the equipment antitheft and tracking of vehicles can be monitored, regardless of the authorization of the owner. In addition to the automakers are reluctant to install antitheft accessory, because it would raise the value of the vehicle by about R$ 600.
The company criticizes the determination, mainly by taking the consumer's freedom to choose whether or not to purchase the equipment. Also consider generating unnecessary expenses, it does not prevent the theft and misuse, as in "first aid kit" which required the owner to have a first aid kit in the vehicle.
