Should we prohibit the driving of dominated cars to young drivers? A bill in this regard was presented in the Senate on February 11 by the senator of northern Audrey Linkenheld (Socialist Group).
Its objective is to prohibit the sale, sale, rent or provision of cars overcome to inexperienced drivers, that is, drivers whose proof period of the permit did not expire, that is, 3 years after obtaining permission, or 2 years in the event Early driving learning.
Selling, producing, renting or making this type of vehicle available would be punished with a fifth class ticket, or 1,500 euros fine.
Repetition of dangerous facts
The initiative is inspired by Franck Gherbi, mayor of Hellemmes, next to Lille, who pointed out the essay of dangerous facts, either in his commune and in other places. She intervenes after death in Lille, on February 8, of a 23 -year -old student, broken by a car that led to more than 100 km/h in an area limited to 30. The driver, 18, had rented A Volkswagen Golf R, with a power of 333 horsepower. He was accused of aggravated homicide and placed under judicial supervision.
According to the bill, “in recent years, our cities face a disturbing increase in risk behavior at risk, particularly through overcome cars.”
These vehicles that are “easily accessible to an inexperienced drivers audience and, therefore, sometimes little prepared to handle their power” according to the bill.
The bill establishes that the “enthusiasm” of the young driver can “become rapid into imprudence” and thus become “a threat.”
“This is, without a doubt, the best way to make those who are tempted to use these cars to have fun, catch and have fun with friends,” Audrey Linkenheld said to BFMTV.
This law should not concern mechanical sport in sport.
But the text is not enough for Philippe Colombani, former president of United Unis, former instructor of the Management School. According to him, it is necessary to emphasize two things: “The limitation in relation to power and not only in power, and a section of criminalization of traffic accidents.”
