The pilot operation of eight traffic cameras – four fixed and four mobile- started on Monday morning with the aim of reducing road accidents.
The cameras, installed as part of the initial phase of a €35m traffic-camera system, recorded about 500 violations in just two hours at a busy junction in central Nicosia last week.
However, authorities decided than no fines will be issued during the first 30 days of operation, with warnings sent to all traffic offenders.
