Sala IV Gives Green Light on Traffic Bill

If you feel that traffic fines under the new Traffic Bill are disproportionally high, it would seem the Constitutional Court (Sala IV) doesn't agree.

With a majority vote, the judges of the Constitutional Court rejected several constitutional inquiries made to the draft Traffic Law. Members of the Board found that there was no disproportionality in fines established by the bill.

Amongst other complaints, many motorists in Costa Rica feel that the fines levied in the Traffic Bill are unfairly high.
