Should the approximately 3,500 vehicles which will be prohibited from driving in the Rennes intra-ring zone from January 1, 2025 as part of the establishment of the ZFE expect to receive a fine? We are not going to prolong the suspense, the answer is no. At least not right away.
“The State has signed contracts with companies to create automatic control devices, but they will not arrive in Rennes for at least two years,” says Matthieu Theurier, Deputy Vice-President for Mobility and Transport of Rennes. Metropolis. So not before 2027.
First an educational radar?
In other metropolises, notably in Paris and Lyon, the installation of automatic control radars is being studied. But its implementation will not take place for several years, according to information from Auto Plus. In the meantime, ZFE educational radars should see the light of day, from mid-2025 in the Greater Paris metropolis.
The principle? Warn before cracking down. According to our information, a camera will read the vehicle registration plate and consult the national file of registration documents, Crit’Air stickers and exemptions. A little further on, a digital sign will inform those who have broken the rule that they should not drive there.
So much for the theory. Because in practice, these radars are not expected right away. And neither do the fines. In Rennes, only the National Police will be able to control motorists, but only during a road check. There is therefore little chance that the fines will be issued before 2027.
