Despite the fact that speed cameras are increasingly appearing on the sides of our roads, sometimes it is very difficult to keep all your points. Especially since in most cases we are deceived by only 3-4 small km/h. And in this case it is so loss of point probably, as well as 68 euros. Suffice it to say, it’s very annoying. However, the government decided to give a small gift to motorists by announcing the end of withdrawals for small excesses. The measure, which should enter into force on January 1, 2025, will apply to exceeding the maximum speed of 5 km/h.

Not yet
But if the move is good news for cars, we shouldn’t kid ourselves either, even though some are urging caution. This is especially true of M. Jean-Baptiste Le Dahl, a lawyer who specializes in road rights. Answering a question from Le Progrès, the latter reminds that this idea has been discussed for quite some time. According to him, ” distribution of these ads is more of a question media teaser” , while “in practice, if the government really wanted to take measures to target drivers, there would be nothing technically in the way Minister of Internal Affairs move faster“. However, this is not the case.
A measure that will not come by itself
According to the specialist, the implementation of this measure will not be a gift from the authorities. This would indeed be accompanied by increased control over blood alcohol or drugs, which is actually not a bad thing. But that’s not all, because for Master Le Dal” we are also thinking about other measures swept under the carpet, e.g arrival of EPZs or technical control of a motorcycle. Therefore, the disappointment may be great when it comes time to unwrap the gift wrapping at the end of the year.“. We just have to wait to find out what the government has in store for us…
