Title: Spanish driving licences
Post by Cariad on Jan 28^th, 2016 at 12:41pm

I have just read where a man in his 60's renewed his Spanish licence and now has restrictions on it. Not being able to drive over 75 km and only 20 km from home. Has anyone else heard of these restrictions. Apparently there are alot more ie not driving at night. Depends on the codes on the licence

All seems crazy and quite unbelievable.
Questions are being asked, and to verify this.
Meanwhile motorists are being stopped here and in surrounding areas, and some are getting 100 euros fine for not having a Spanish driving licence.

My husband has the same restrictions, has to go back after a year I think. Not too bad for us I can do all the driving but very difficult if partner doesn't drive.

Tarayoles, you know the health situation of your husband. Do you have the feeling these restrictions make sense?
