приближается принятие Road Traffic (No.2) Bill 2013

[deniszb]

Новый бил уже на "Bills on Seanad Order Paper" на Committee Stage, а там ребята ничего не затягивают
какие грозят изменения

• introduce an ‘N’ plate for novice drivers
• New drivers will have to display the plates for two years after they gain their licence.
• Motorcyclists won’t escape the measure. According to the Bill, they’ll be required to wear a florescent vest with “the letter ‘N’, not less than 15 centimetres high in red on a white background, in clearly visible vertical positions to the front and rear”.

помимо 12 обязательных часов EDT надо будет:

In addition, learner drivers applying to sit a test will have to produce a ‘log book’ showing they’ve built up enough hours of driving experience. This is in addition to the 12 formal hours with an approved instructor already required.

Непонятно пока, это с любым "полным" водителем, или только с инструктором

а также немножко приятного

THE PRACTICE OF ‘clocking’ a car is soon to be banned in Ireland, if an amendment to the Road Traffic (No 2) Bill 2013 is accepted
......and if found guilty will face a fine of up to ?5,000 or up to three months in jail. This is a practical change to the law which will make our roads safer and ensure quality goods are being sold in all motor dealerships.
