Have you noticed the red lines on the back and sides of trucks in Spain? These aren’t just for looks! Since late 2024, these reflective red stripes (officially the V-23 road sign) are mandatory for most large trucks, trailers, and semi-trailers registered after July 10, 2011. Their purpose is crucial for road safety, clearly outlining the vehicle’s size and making it highly visible at night and in poor weather conditions. While voluntary for older vehicles (registered before 2011), their use is strongly recommended to enhance visibility and safety on Spanish roads.
Spring is the transitional period of the year, when significant fluctuations in atmospheric precipitation occur. These fluctuations are varied, intense, and sudden. Therefore, its weather can present winter characteristics or, conversely, herald summer.
All these sudden changes in weather conditions negatively impact driving and road trips. Therefore, if you’re taking a road trip, we should always keep in mind the two basic rules of driving: PREVENTION and PRUDENCE. These will allow us to travel at this time of year in the best possible road safety conditions.
