Vehicles without identification circulate on the streets and highways of Ecuador, even their drivers invade the lanes they are supposed to drive on, for example the one exclusive to Metrovía, in the city of Guayaquil.

The fine of $127, which will increase to $450 from this January, for vehicles that circulate without metal plates must also be for authorities and entities that are late in issuing them..

Carlos Merino

The fine for driving a vehicle without a license plate must be greater than $450 or $1,000. Those who are against increasing the value of the penalty are aides and concealers of murders, crimes, and the institution also because it does not give license plates to vehicle owners. (OR)

Claudio Stadler

Are state cars included? State officials are the first to lead by example, so ordered President Lasso in his first days when he took power; and force the removal of black films or filters from the glass and windows of the said government vehicles. (OR)

Lenin Garrido

Transport agencies have to pay a fine, these agencies are not doing their job, they are not delivering metal plates to users, they are just giving paper. (OR)

Pedro Jose Cedeno Cedeno

It is the responsibility of the authority responsible for issuing license plates, the delay of which must be sanctioned in an appropriate manner and the fine announced, otherwise it would be an abuse to only fine the citizens. (OR)

Gonzalo Vera

I agree, this is how we bring order to traffic violators. Many people are disabled, disabled by irresponsible drivers who use vehicles without license plates for sinister and dark purposes. They must also impose prison, clean the streets, public institutions, and publicly express why they are doing these jobs. (OR)

Juan M. Leoro

For years, vehicles without license plates have been circulating in Ecuador, especially in Guayas, which is an abnormal situation that should not happen in any country. A fine of $450 may seem heavy even to the ‘powerful gentlemen’ with money, but violators must pay it, as do police officers, obey and enforce the law. In other countries, just for using the vehicle’s whistle unnecessarily due to insolence, the fine is $500, and anyone driving a vehicle without license plates is immediately arrested. In Ecuador, it is forbidden to drive vehicles without license plates and with black films, but they roll through cities and highways. (OR)

Luis Palacios

The value of the fine is very low, at least $1000 and 30 days in jail should be the sanction for a person who drives a vehicle without plates, and the vehicle must be stopped, taken to a vehicle impoundment, until the owner with the plates can be approached and put them on the vehicle, to the retention center. (OR)

Gerardo Campoverde

I believe that this is a positive measure, it will enable greater control of the vast majority of robberies, criminal acts that are carried out, where criminals use vehicles that do not have license plates. (OR)

Jose Ortoneda Sanchez

This is very well done, because in this way people get used to being ordered and fulfill their obligations, and we will prevent thugs from misleading the police with their misdeeds in vehicles without license plates, running away and not being arrested. (OR)
