The Traffic Department is about to be refurbished in the coming months the General Traffic Regulations which introduce changes that will affect cars, mopeds and, especially, bicycles and other vehicles that may be driving without a license, such as cars without a license .

These have been considered until now as an alternative means of transport and to reform, will rise to the preferred vehicle category, allowing them to circulate through the middle of the road on the way with a maximum speed of 30km / h. Until now, the bikes were relegated to driving on the right of the road, with the danger involved cars that were circulating through the center of the roadway.

In addition, to further enhance the use of bicycles, the new regulations allow the movement of bicycles on sidewalks over 3 meters wide, provided they are kept to a meter of the façades of buildings.

As mopeds ends the possibility of circular motorcycle without a helmet for health reasons, and helmets will be prohibited quitamultas called. These helmets without standardization will be banned from the reform, urging motorcyclists to use helmets approved with a minimum of security, something that advise all companies motorcycle insurance .

With this future reform, the rider will benefit from greater freedom and protection on the road.
