The recording and payment of parking tickets in road traffic is made easier Bavarias Interior Minister Joachim Herrmann presented the digital ticket in Nuremberg today. In the future the Bavarian Police will be able to record traffic offenses across the country with a special app on business smartphones so-called mOwi app . In the event of parking violations for example a notification with a QR code is attached to the vehicle. Via the notification those affected can view and pay for the traffic offense on a new citizen information portal. Use of the citizen information portal is voluntary. The warning will also be sent by post. This is not only a considerable time saver for our police officers but also a simplification for those affected explained Herrmann.The interior minister made it clear that traffic monitoring is not about the highest possible income. Without intensive controls and noticeable sanctions far too many would not adhere to the traffic rules argued Herrmann. That would be a big problem for road safety. The minister appealed to all road users It is essential that you follow the traffic rules It would be good if the police had to use the mOwi app as little as possible. The mOwi app was developed by the Bavarian police themselves as there is no comparable application on the market. It is part of the Mobile Police digitization offensive. As Herrmann explained the Munich police have been testing the mOwi app and the citizen information portal intensively since June 2021. After the pilot was successful we decided to deploy it nationwide. All Bavarian police stations will be able to use the app by January 2022. Of course the mOwi app and the citizen information portal have the highest data security and data protection requirements emphasized the interior minister. The Free State has invested around 650000 euros in both applications.
