Over the last five years, Italians have spent more than 8.5 billion euros on traffic fines. This amounts to an average of €142 per person, including newborns. The figures come from Codacons, which reports that in 2025 the total revenue from fines came close to 1.9 billion euros. This figure remains quite high, but is down 4.4 percent from 2024, following years of continuous increase. Lombardy is the region with the highest burden on drivers, generating about €456 million in revenue in a single year. Tuscany comes next with €208 million, followed by Emilia-Romagna with €192 million. Valle d'Aosta stays at the bottom of the rankings, collecting little under €3 million in 2025. Milan is first among large cities, with €169.7 million, followed by Rome and Florence. Yet, major municipalities are experiencing the greatest revenue decrease, with an average reduction of more than 11%. According to Codacons, the reduction is not due to modifications to the new Highway Code that went into effect at the end of 2024, but rather to new speed camera limits and the deactivation of several devices. Recent Supreme Court decisions overturning thousands of fines for unauthorized devices were also crucial. This setback disrupts a long era of expansion, which began at €1.2 billion in 2021 and reached a high of nearly €2 billion in 2024, before slowing last year.
