The article is dedicated to the issue of the possibility for building a system for monitoring compliance with traffic rules on  the  basis  of  mivar  technologies.  Currently  unmanned  vehicle  control  systems  are  being  developed  worldwide.  In particular, based on the mivar expert systems supplied with Razumator –   a system with linear computational complexity  of logical inference, there was constructed and successfully tested a prototype of the decision-making system for  monitoring traffic rules compliance (DMS MTRC) for Robo!Razum autonomous unmanned car. Nevertheless, the use of  DMS MTRC is not limited to projects of unmanned vehicles development, and such systems can be installed in  conventional cars as systems for monitoring drivers’ compliance with traffic rules. The article substantiates the opinion  that all necessary modules are available to construct mivar systems for monitoring traffic rules compliance (MS MTRC)  on the basis of the Razumators. MS MTRC will prompt the drivers for permitted manoeuvres, and in case of violation of  traffic rules by drivers the system will inform the driver about such violation. Subject to regulation by laws, MS MTRC can  report violations of traffic rules to state authorities and «write out a fine» to the driver similar to the existing systems used  for detection and reporting traffic rules violations. The powerful mivar toolkit (Wi!Mi Razumator, Tel!Mi and Robo!Razum),  the scalability of the mivar knowledge models and low requirements to hardware make it possible to ensure a low cost  of the MS MTRC and also to easily and quickly adapt this software product to the legislation of the countries where a  particular car is to be operated. MS MTRC can be built into new cars at automotive factories or can be installed as  optional equipment on already used cars.
