Traffic management is essential for the development of smart and safe cities. With the aim of improving the quality of urban life and promoting awareness about traffic safety — core values of 4Smartcloud — September 25th is National Traffic Day.
The Origin of National Traffic Day
Celebrated annually, National Traffic Day was established to reinforce the importance of education and road safety. The date refers to the creation of the Brazilian Traffic Code (CTB) in 1997, which established guidelines for drivers, cyclists and pedestrians, organizing traffic and reducing accidents.
The Evolution of Traffic Management in Brazil
