The Colombian Ministry of Transport began preparing a draft for a comprehensive reform of the National Traffic Code on 2026-01-09. ^[1] The proposed reform of Colombia's National Traffic Code would modify fine amounts, fees for procedures, the frequency of technical-mechanical inspections, and the validity of driver's licenses. ^[2] A key proposal is to establish fines proportional to each driver's economic capacity, potentially using vehicle value or socioeconomic data. ^[3] The proposed reform includes changes to fines, administrative procedures, and costs for drivers in Colombia. ^[4] Darío Hidalgo supports eliminating 'camera traps' used mainly for revenue collection but warns some devices serve a road safety function; he cited studies in Bogotá showing positive effects in reducing accidents, and said limiting their use too much could increase deaths and injuries on the roads. ^[5] Darío Hidalgo, professor of Transport and Logistics at the Universidad Javeriana, said that a reform of this scope must reach the Colombian Congress with a clear structure and must pass four debates before becoming law. ^[6] Under the proposed system, two people committing the same traffic violation could pay different fine amounts depending on their economic capacity. ^[7]
