Prague’s Public Transportation Inspectors Conducted Record Number of Inspections in 2022

In 2022, Prague's public transportation inspectors conducted a record 8.33 million inspections, resulting in 255,115 fines and collecting 227.9 million CZK. This represents the highest figures since at least 2016. The increase in fines, despite a similar number of inspections compared to the previous year, is attributed to high fare costs and the rise in remote work. Immediate fine payments have increased to 50%, and the incentivization system for inspectors has contributed to the high number of inspections. The penalty for fare evasion is 1500 CZK, reducible to 1000 CZK if paid promptly.
