The Italian Council of Ministers has approved a new highway code that introduces stricter penalties for uninsured vehicles and adjustments to traffic fines. Under the new regulations, vehicles found operating without valid insurance coverage will face indefinite impoundment. Officials stated the revisions aim to create a more equitable system for road users while prioritizing the needs of individuals with disabilities.
The updated code includes a restructuring of traffic fines, which will be lowered in certain categories to better align with economic fairness. The government indicated that these changes are intended to modernize road safety compliance and improve accessibility standards. The new measures will now proceed through the legislative process for final implementation across the country.
