The CCTVA, the Technical Control Center for Motor Vehicles in Dakar, organized a user awareness day on the maintenance of their engine. When passing through the technical control, an informative note on the degree of pollution of the vehicle is given to each owner. However, this note does not currently provide for any limit or counter-visit imposed on the most polluting vehicles. In order to raise awareness and increase everyone's consciousness, the center's experts gave technical advice to each polluting vehicle owner, in particular on the maintenance of their engine.
