Military Police from several regions also registered 614 fines related to dangerous driving and irregularity in documentation
The intensification of motorcyclist meetings known as rolezinhos during the Christmas period led security forces to launch operations in different regions of Brazil after December 24, 2025. The partial balance of the actions already indicates that at least 100 motorcycles were seized, in addition to hundreds of fines and occasional arrests.

The case with the greatest repercussion occurred in Rondonópolis (MT), where the Military Police thwarted a Christmas rolezinho on the night of December 25. The operation resulted in the seizure of 30 irregular motorcycles, the application of 84 fines and the arrest of a motorcyclist for dangerous driving, drunkenness and lack of license. During the dispersal, the PM even used non-lethal means, such as rubber bullets, after motorcyclists advanced against the teams.
In the interior of São Paulo, other cities also registered similar actions. In Franca (SP), the PM prevented a meeting scheduled by social networks in the early hours of Christmas, with 20 motorcycles seized and 335 traffic violations. In Bastos (SP), an operation on Christmas Eve ended with six motorcycles collected and about 35 fines.
In the Northeast, an integrated operation in Campina Grande (PB), between December 24 and 26, resulted in the seizure of approximately 40 motorcycles, in addition to more than 160 vehicles fined and records of arrests and seizure of narcotics.
In Minas Gerais, the PM seized four motorcycles in Caratinga (MG) after complaints of a concentration of motorcycles without license plates and prepared for a rolezinho. In Rio de Janeiro, Nova Friburgo carried out an integrated operation between the night of the 24th and the dawn of the 25th, with motorcycle removals and several infractions recorded, although the total number of seizures was not disclosed.
The operations reflect a coordinated action by security forces during the holiday period, when the increase in the flow of people and vehicles increases traffic risks. According to the authorities, the focus of the actions is to curb dangerous maneuvers, excessive noise, tampering with motorcycles and driving without a license, practices often associated with these meetings.
The survey is partial and only considers cases reported after December 24, which indicates that the real number of motorcycles seized may be even higher.
