Romania Changes Driving License Retest Rules

Romania Updates Road Code: Drivers Must Now Show Proof of Fine Payment for License Retests Romania has recently updated its road code, introducing a new requirement for drivers seeking to regain their licenses after suspension. According to Tavi Perțea, a police officer in Bihor County and creator of a driver's license retest app, drivers must now present proof of payment for any outstanding fines before being allowed to take the retest. This change, effective immediately, aims to streamline the process and ensure compliance with traffic regulations. "This new provision affects all drivers who need to retake their driving test after a suspension," explains Perțea in a recent video. "Previously, you could take the test without paying the fine, but now it's mandatory to provide proof of payment." The change has been met with mixed reactions. Some drivers express concern about the added administrative burden, while others see it as a positive step towards improving road safety and ensuring accountability. The government has not yet released an official statement on the matter. Perțea's video provides a clear explanation of the new law, and his app offers drivers a convenient way to prepare for the retest. The change highlights the ongoing efforts to improve road safety in Romania.
