Driving License Suspension for 6 Months: Drivers Warned About Harsh Penalties

According to the new rules, buses and special vehicles transporting hazardous materials must undergo mandatory technical control every six months, which is a fairly strict requirement. Other types of vehicles, such as trucks, taxis, and passenger cars, also have their inspection deadlines as specified in the new rules.

Bus drivers and special vehicles for transporting hazardous materials must undergo technical inspections twice a year, regardless of the vehicle's age. This requirement became effective on July 1 of this year when new rules enacted by the Cabinet of Ministers in May 2025 came into force.

In particular, the new rules establish the mandatory technical inspection of buses and special vehicles for hazardous materials twice a year, regardless of their age. This is an important step towards improving road safety and preventing possible accidents due to faulty vehicles.
