DGT invests lonely trips into the car: “The future will be an exchange or not”

Debates about personal mobility and how to combine it with the goals of emissions, This is still a debate in Europe and Spain. While electrical mobility solves part of the problem, its adoption is relatively slow. DGT director is not alien to this discussion, and one of his plans is as ambitious as it is problematic.

Pereza, DGT, director of DGT and in the global call of mobility in Madrid, pointed out an idea that could serve as an alternative to help achieve the goals of emissions, but especially contradictory in regard to individual freedom.

And this is none other than look at lonely car trips: “You must put two people in each vehicle so that users who move to the car take at least two places in each caror”.

At the moment, DGT does not plan to implement this measure

Logically, DGT has no specific plans for launching such a caliber. Not only because of how problematic this can relate to public opinion, also because it suggests, de -factor, Restriction of individual freedomsHow was the restrictions for emissions that were launched in large cities.

DGT Direct commented on this forum that we should “make a collective change in mentality, which allows us to encourage the high profession of vehicles because We cannot afford 1,500 kg every day to move to one personThe field increase in vehicle classes is a problem and necessity. “

However, as we say, there are no plans for which DGT will begin a similar measure, and everything will be fine for this, since he was read in some social networks.

In our country there is no measure of such a caliber in which country

In fact, today lWith the only restriction of DGT when driving alone in a car, this is to do this on an alley reserved for a high profession, such as a bus VAOWhat entails a sanction of 200 euros, with the exception. These permits for slopes for cars with zero labeling, taxi or VTC, motorcycles or van or VA-15-signals for people with disabilities. Also, signs of the route itself may indicate some additional exceptions. For other methods, there are no restrictions in driving alone.

Also countries in our environment. France has similar measures with VAO in some peripheral routes of large cities that leave strips for these cars with a large number of passengers, but there is no ban on circulating only on a general nature.

Be that as it may, DGT director has already released the first bomb and generally Many of their cases ultimately turn into circulation rules. Another thing, very excellent, is that someone wants to take on political costs that forbid people to go alone in their car. This does not happen yet.
