Young driver was banned from driving

Yesterday the police conducted traffic checks on a stretch of road in a rural area near Gøtugjógv where it is allowed to drive 50.

There, drivers are regularly caught driving too fast – and they were again yesterday. Police say that four drivers were arrested yesterday, police say. They were all driving between 72 and 76 kilometers per hour.

Usually it gives a cut in the driving license to drive so fast, and they got that too, in addition to the fine.

But one of them was a young driver who has not had a driver’s license for three years.

Then the rules are stricter, because the first three years, one has a driving license is to be regarded as a probationary period.

This young driver has previously received a cut in his driving license – and now he got another one.

And that means he gets a driving ban. Therefore, he will not be allowed to drive again until he has taken his entire driving license again.
