(ANSA) - ROME, NOVEMBER 19 - Risk of a new 'hit' also from road fines: on the basis of the provisions of the Highway Code, in the coming weeks there is a risk of an upward update of the amounts of road fines, with a possible increase even higher than 11 % starting from January 2023. The complaint comes from Simone Baldelli, former president of the parliamentary commission of inquiry into consumers and for years the protagonist of battles in favor of transparency on the subject of road penalties.
Baldelli recalls that, according to article 195 of the highway code, "the extent of administrative fines is updated every two years to an extent equal to the entire variation, ascertained by Istat, of the consumer price index for blue-collar and white-collar families (national average) occurred in the previous two years.
while the fine for failure to inspect the vehicle would increase from 173 to 190 euros (+17 euros).
