This includes residents driving on unexchanged foreign licences (especially UK licences post-Brexit) and those attempting to cheat driving tests.

Patience and respect are key when sharing the road with agricultural machinery.

This reform adapts signage to modern social, technological, and mobility changes, introducing new signs for personal mobility vehicles, updating pictograms, and removing obsolete ones. The gradual physical replacement of signs aims for a unified, clearer, and more inclusive road signage system across the country.
Driving under the influence of alcohol remains a significant road safety issue in Spain, contributing to hundreds of deaths and serious injuries annually. Alcohol impairs crucial driving abilities like coordination, attention, vision, and decision-making, with effects intensifying based on factors such as consumption amount, individual characteristics, and combination with other substances.
