Minister Salvini returns to talk about the possibility to raise the limits on the highway

Minister of Infrastructure and Transport Matteo Salvini returns to talk about the possible raising of the speed limits; on the highway. In an interview with Radio 24, the minister commented. I am convinced that on some motorway sections with some specific characteristics, there is the margin to be able to exceed the current 130 km/h.

I am convinced that on some Italian routes with an accident rate; close to zero, at some times, where there are three, four or even five lanes, a controlled exceeding of the current 130 km/h as in other European countries can be taken into consideration.

All that remains, therefore, is to wait to understand exactly what it will be. the proposal. The theme of raising the speed limits on the highway it is not; not at all new, as we know. Several Governments ago, the then Minister of Infrastructure Pietro Lunardi obtained to raise the limit from 130 km/h to 150 km/h, on some motorway sections, provided that certain conditions were met. However, despite this possibility, none of the motorway concessionaires then wanted to take responsibility for this. to raise the speed limits.

MASSIMA SEVERIT?

The minister did not agree; limited to talking about speed limits; on the highway. In fact, he reiterated once again that the revision of the highway code will introduce very strict rules such as, for example, the life sentence of the driving licence, which is the impossibility of to get it back after it's over. been withdrawn. Salvini, in particular, mentions the case of repeat offenders who cause damage by driving drunk.

In the meantime, what I bring provides for the definitive withdrawal of the license for repeat offenders who cause damage by driving drunk and more severe penalties. strict for driving with a mobile phone.

Furthermore, Salvini once again underlines the intention to ensure that new drivers cannot drive large-engined cars for the first three years.

For new drivers, the impossibility of to drive large-engined cars for three years.

On the dramatic accident that involved some Youtubers who were aboard a Lamborghini, the minister wanted to highlight that the kids inside the car will be prosecuted according to the law but that must not be criminalized regardless< /strong> the category of Youtubers or that of Influencers.

Those five who took the life of a child in Lamborghini must be prosecuted for what the law provides. But there is no need to preemptively lynch youtubers and those who use social media. Using social media in the car to be stupid must be sanctioned with the rules that exist. The important thing is; do not criminalize youtubers and influencers regardless.

According to the minister, in fact, positive messages of road safety also come from social networks. Thursday; will be presented the bill on road safety. Soon, therefore, we will be able to find out in detail what are the real measures that the Government intends to introduce.

CODACONS: NO TO THE INCREASE OF SPEED LIMITS?

The minister's words on the increase in speed limits immediately led to some reactions. In particular, the Codacons has said once again against this possibility; which would have a negative impact on road safety.

Raising the limits on the highway is a must. an idea already born launched in 2001 by the then Minister of Transport Pietro Lunardi and then withdrawn in 2009 by Matteoli. An idea immediately abandoned because; it would have had far-reaching repercussions on road safety, increasing the number of road deaths. And this is confirmed by the latest official reports from Istat on accidents in the workplace. in Italy: more than 12% of accidents, deaths and injuries on our motorways are caused by accidents. caused precisely by excess speed.

Criticisms also from Assoutenti.
