CNH renewal process faces changes
Several novelties will be implemented after the enactment of Law nº 14,599, with significant changes for drivers. In addition to changes in drug testing, the Brazilian Traffic Code (CTB) and other specific laws have also undergone changes.
The most notable aspect is the new rules that will be applied to obtain and renew the driver's license, affecting some modalities.
According to the text, the mandatory drug test started to be applied, but not for everyone. Only category C, D and E drivers need to be aware of this requirement when renewing their CNH.

This amendment aims to ensure that drivers responsible for transporting cargo, passengers and all drivers with licenses B, C and D are submitted to tests to detect the presence of psychoactive substances in their organisms.
Evidently, the new measure is aimed at raising the road safety, while combating the use of illicit drugs and medication by some drivers to endure long hours driving.
While renewals for drivers in other categories remain unchanged, those belonging to categories C, D and E should be aware of the expiration date of CNHs.
If you need to renew them, it is important to schedule the process and follow the guidelines provided by the Department of Transit (Detran) in your respective federative unit.
