Question 12492 — road safety

Summary

Mr. Vincent Descoeur draws the attention of the Minister, to the Minister of State, Minister for Ecological and Inclusive Transition, responsible for transport, to the consequences of the implementation of the reduction in the maximum authorized speed to 80 km/h on the secondary road network. As was predictable, this measure, which came into force on July 1, 2018, led to an explosion in speeding offenses, the number of which would have doubled during the month of July 2018 alone. This situation is particularly penalizing for professionals who, because they cover significant distances each year on the road, find themselves exposed to loss of points for small speeding violations and take the risk of losing their job with their driving license. He asks him if, following the implementation of this limitation of speed which constitutes a major modification of the highway code, the Government plans to adjust the scale of sanctions provided for by the highway code for speeding accordingly, in particular to prevent speeding of less than 10 km/h from leading to a loss of points.
