Distracted Driving Crackdown, Tyre Safety, and New DGT Signs - The N332 Driving in Spain Podcast
Season 2
Episode 10
Published 9 months, 2 weeks ago
Description
This week, the DGT is targeting every form of driver distraction—from holding a mobile phone (a 6-point, €200 offence) to subtle habits like smoking or talking to passengers.
We detail why this campaign is crucial, reviewing a news story where a driver changing a song caused a horrific school bus accident.
Plus, we highlight our three new website articles, explaining the mandatory need for identical tyres on each axle in Spain and why safety experts recommend replacing your tread at 3 millimetres, not the legal 1.6 millimetres, to significantly improve wet weather stopping distances.
Thanks for listening, please remember to follow for more. Or not. Your choice. But thanks anyway.
