Greece Cracks Down on Speeding: 1200 Euro Fine for 200km/h+

Greece Implements Strict New Traffic Code: 1200 Euro Fine for 200km/h Speeding Greece has introduced a stricter traffic code with harsh penalties for speeding, particularly for those exceeding 200 km/h. The new regulations, effective immediately, aim to curb reckless driving and improve road safety. Under the new code, drivers caught exceeding 200 km/h will face a 1200 euro fine and a one-year license suspension for a first offense. Subsequent offenses will result in even steeper fines. "This is a significant increase in penalties," says a legal expert interviewed for this report. "The goal is to make drivers think twice before engaging in such dangerous behavior." The government is also implementing a points system and utilizing increased camera surveillance to enforce the new rules. The use of technology will allow for more effective monitoring and prosecution of speeding violations. While some have voiced concerns about the severity of the penalties, others welcome the stricter approach to road safety. The new code represents a significant step towards creating safer roads for all.
