The Brazilian Superior Electoral Tribunal (TSE) has been granted access to data from all drivers as the country advances in its biometric data collection efforts.

TSE has been collecting biometric data for voter identification as a means to prevent fraud since 2013.

With access to systems maintained by driver registration body Denatran, TSE will get access to the data of some 60 million citizens.
