"Revolutionary Changes in Traffic Rules"

In recent years, European countries have been diligently working on a significant change regarding driving licenses. Finally, this new regulation has been adopted by the European Parliament and has been formalized. These new rules aim to enhance traffic safety in the European Union (EU) member states, particularly by consolidating the penalties for serious violations under a single framework across Europe.

According to the new regulation, serious traffic violations such as speeding, driving under the influence of alcohol and drugs will be applicable throughout Europe. This means that not only will the violation affect the country where it occurred, but also the driving records of the drivers will be directly impacted in all EU member countries. For example, a driver who commits a traffic violation in Germany may also be penalized in France.

With this regulation, severe sanctions will come into effect especially for drivers involved in fatal accidents. Drivers will face strict penalties that are valid across Europe, not just within a single country. The European Parliament emphasized that such serious traffic violations have become a general safety issue across Europe. It is anticipated that this new regulation will serve as an incentive for drivers to be more careful.

The new regulation also prevents individuals who wish to obtain a license in different countries from driving in their own countries. In other words, a license obtained abroad will not remain valid for the driver’s home country. This situation has raised concerns about foreign licenses threatening the safety provided by their own citizens on the roads. Thus, the EU has created new rules to ensure that drivers' licenses are restricted to the country where they were obtained.

In summary, Europe's new traffic rules aim to enhance driver safety and foresee the more effective implementation of cancellations or penalties for serious violations. These regulations pursue the goal of providing traffic safety standards at a higher level across the EU and emphasize that all drivers must comply with these new rules. Considering the increasing traffic accidents and fatalities in recent years, this change is deemed an important step.
