Automated traffic enforcement system to come into effect at 3 more border checkposts from Dec 9

Digital Goa, Dec 8 – The Directorate of Transport has announced that electronic enforcement will come into effect from midnight of December 9, 2025, at Keri, Patradevi, and Pollem border checkposts. Under the new system, traffic violations detected by the Goa Vehicle Authentication System (GoVA) will be automatically recorded. Digital e-challans for offences will be generated and sent via SMS to the mobile number registered with the vehicle. Currently, verification of vehicle documents at state border checkposts is largely conducted through manual and random checks. “Electronic enforcement under Section 136-A of the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988, will be implemented in the state of Goa for detecting and penalising traffic offences recorded on GoVA. System-generated e-challans will be sent via SMS to the registered mobile number of the vehicle owner,” the official notification stated. A similar system was introduced at Mollem Checkpost in October 2025.
