With the new regulations, all minors will be prohibited from having even the slightest trace of alcohol on their body, drive the type of vehicle they drive: moped, AM, motorcycles up to 125cc, bicycles and PMVs (personal mobility vehicles).
The movement of the DGT It comes as a response to the proliferation of new forms of mobility that have occurred in recent years, especially due to the rise of electric scooters and VMP, which crowd the streets and are often driven by minors.
It also supposes a somewhat narrower marking for those who take the bikes (on many occasions those of shared use services, whether electric or not) having drunk.
There have been many news that have come to light of people who use this type of vehicle to return home after an afternoon or night of partying and that have caused accidents of varying severity.
In addition, attention is paid to the fact that when driving in one of them, the user is much more vulnerable than if he were by car, which, added to the inexperience of being minors, constitutes a greater danger.
There is part of the public that asks that this alcohol rate limit also be applied to other drivers, but it does not seem that it is something that the DGT contemplate for the moment, maintaining 0.15 mg/l of expired air in novice and professional drivers as a limit, and 0.25 mg/l for other drivers.
