Authorities in Harare issue a two-week warning to motorists as they prepare to start issuing fines using a new Smart Traffic and Crime Management System. The system has already recorded more than two million traffic violations, according to reporting from Zimbabwe Independent and New Zimbabwe.
Home Affairs Minister Kazembe Kazembe tours multiple camera locations as part of preparations. New Zimbabwe states he visits 14 of the 20 planned camera sites across the capital on Thursday, while both outlets describe the broader rollout of the camera network and the imminent move from monitoring to enforcement.
The outlets largely agree on the main figures and timeline: the warning period, the recorded number of violations, and the purpose of the system—automated ticketing based on camera evidence. The coverage does not present competing claims about the totals or the enforcement start date beyond the shared message that fines are expected after the grace period ends.
