Transport Minister Salvinion the occasion of the presentation of the Dekra Road Safety Report, addressed the question of the revision of traffic rules. In fact, the minister intends to open a technical table, which will discuss the changes being made.
By the end of this year, I would like to assemble a table for updating the Rules of the Road with the participation of the Ministry of Education, local authorities and representatives of municipalities.
During his speech, the Minister has already expressed some ideas, commenting on some of the latest news developments. For Salvini it must be intervene in sanctions also in terms of time. For this reason, he puts forward the idea of the possibility of life imprisonment in the most serious cases, for example, when a person is found driving while intoxicated or under the influence of drugs.
Economic sanctions are a deterrent, but I think the timing should also be reviewed. Lifetime deprivation of the right to drive a car, I believe, can and should be considered in the most serious cases.
Salvini also talks about the importance of teaching children about road safety, the first tool in accident prevention.
I believe that it is necessary to bring road safety education to school tables, to teach children from a very early age to follow the rules and safety. Prevention is the first weapon.
The comment about electric scooters, a topic that has been discussed for a long time, could not be missed. The minister needs to make riding electric scooters safer. For this reason, he proposes to introduce a helmet, as well as a license plate, in order to be able to punish those who misuse these vehicles.
Without forgetting that it is necessary to make traveling on two wheels safer, in particular by requiring the use of a helmet and a license plate on scooters so that the vehicle can be identified.
During the presentation of the Dekra report on road safety, the Deputy Minister of Infrastructure and Transport, Galeazzo Bignami, also spoke and proposed to revise the fines, following the path already taken in some foreign countries, i.e. Increasing fines based on income.
Therefore, when discussing the revision of the Road Code, a specific study will also be carried out on the possibility of achieving proportionality between income and fines, with the possibility, therefore, of introducing an increase in fines based on the affordability of each.
