The DGT and Guardia Civil have launched a high-intensity surveillance campaign this week focusing squarely on driver distraction, a core cause of road fatalities in Spain.
This episode of the N332 Driving in Spain Podcast explores the critical need for constant attention, looking beyond mobile phones to include dangers like smoking, talking to passengers, and even adjusting the radio, using a shocking international news story as a powerful reminder of the consequences of momentary inattention.
We also cover the latest Spanish road law updates, including the rollout of new road markings, the approaching deadline for the mandatory V16 connected emergency beacon, and the controversial new signs monitoring minimum safety distance.
Finally, we highlight three essential articles available on the N332 website throughout this week, providing a deep dive into tyre safety compliance, the 1.6mm legal limit versus the recommended 3mm safety margin, and how to read the vital codes on your tyre sidewalls.
Our historian’s segment looks back at the launch of the Ford Sierra and Spanish classic motoring events.
