San Pedro’s Way of Minimizing Traffic Licensing Fraud 

When Mayor Nunez took office in 2021, he had to tackle a major issue: corruption in the traffic department of the San Pedro Town Council. There were shady dealings with fake license stickers being sold, and the money never made it to the council’s funds. But Nunez says that’s all been sorted out now. They’ve upgraded their software, and the council has had to get pretty inventive with the licenses to keep things running smoothly.

“We have implemented different measures when it comes to the licenses.  Every year we change the design of the stickers. We have different measures that are in effect so that we can know if they are doing something wrong with respect to the licensing or the registration of the vehicles.”
