The Great Licence Gamble!

Driving with an invalid or expired licence is a surprisingly common, yet serious, offence in Spain, with consequences ranging from fines to prison time. This includes residents driving on unexchanged foreign licences (especially UK licences post-Brexit) and those attempting to cheat driving tests. Spanish law is clear: all drivers must hold a valid, recognized licence for their residency status. Violations can lead to substantial fines (€200-€500), points deductions, and even criminal charges for serious infringements like driving while banned or impersonating another for a test. Stay informed on Spanish driving regulations to avoid legal trouble and ensure road safety.

During spring and summer, tractors and other agricultural vehicles become more common on Spanish roads, often travelling slowly and requiring extra caution from other drivers. Understanding their road positioning, speed restrictions, and licensing requirements is essential for safety. Motorists should maintain a safe distance, overtake only when it’s clearly safe, and be especially mindful on rural and interurban roads. Patience and respect are key when sharing the road with agricultural machinery.

The Spanish Government has approved an update to its official catalogue of traffic signs, effective July 1, 2025. 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.
