From today, the limits for young drivers

Have you obtained a license B today? Or are you going to get it and can not wait to get behind the wheel of your car? Be careful, because now the new rule comes into force on the power limit for young drivers. This limit is 55 kilowatts per tonne, with the further limitation of the maximum power of 70 kW (92.5 hp).

Speaking of numbers, which means that only about 10% of cars for sale in Italy may be conducted by young drivers. How to obtain this figure? Simple, you need to divide the car's power (in kW) for the tare of the car (in tonnes). As mentioned, the result must be equal to or less than 55, or nothing to do.

To search for clarity, it must be said that books on the movement of vehicles registered after October 4, 2007 this ratio is already expressed, while those not registered before being communicated. It should be remembered that the tare weight of the vehicle (or vehicle mass in running order) is obtained by adding 75 kg (the weight of conventional driver) to the empty mass.

The prices of cars "granted" vary between € 6,950 of the 36,500 euro Dacia Sandero 1.2 Mitsubishi iMiEV, the small Japanese electricity. The penalties for young drivers outlaw consist of 152 euro fine plus suspension of license for 2 and 8 months. Moreover, in case of an accident with the fault of the insurance company could use right of recourse against the insured, so that payments may not indifferent.

All of this is the first year, after which the novice can get behind the wheel of any car. For all other restrictions (such as zero tolerance under the new rules of the road) will have to wait another two years.
