Spanish Traffic Law applies to all public and communal roads, whether on public or private land. This includes areas commonly used by an indeterminate community of users, such as supermarket carparks. Here, traffic regulations governing vehicle movement, safety, and driver qualifications, including vehicle inspections and valid insurance, are mandatory. Violations, such as not wearing a seatbelt, are punishable, even on rural or unmarked roads. The law pertains to all areas of common use, enforcing the same standards as in publicly accessible spaces.
