EU-Führerscheinrichtlinie: Strafen gelten jetzt EU-weit – aber was passiert mit der MPU?

The new 4th EU Driving Licence Directive allows for the enforcement of penalties for traffic offenses across Europe, but does not change the mutual recognition of a legally acquired EU driving licence.

Hartmann & Partner in Oranienburg, www.ra-hartmann.de "The 4th EU Driving Licence Directive and the Europe-wide enforcement of traffic penalties – that's what we're talking about today. Hello dear viewers, welcome back to my YouTube channel. My name is Henning Hartmann, and I'm a specialist lawyer for traffic law and criminal law at the law firm of Dr. Hartmann & Partner in Oranienburg. The 4th EU Driving Licence Directive has been adopted. We've been eagerly awaiting it, and one aspect of the directive is the cross-border enforcement of penalties. National authorities are to, and will, immediately inform each other about decisions regarding driving disqualifications related to traffic offenses. This is done via the central exchange system Respa. What does this mean for obtaining a new driving licence if the MPU (Medical-Psychological Assessment) would have had to be completed in Germany before obtaining a new licence there? Answer: Nothing. Of course, penalties can now be enforced, and of course, other countries can see whether a driving ban is still in effect. The 4th EU Driving Licence Directive makes this possible. But if it comes to obtaining a new licence..." If you receive a new license, then, according to the European Court of Justice (ECJ), a driving aptitude test has been conducted as part of this new acquisition process. This is precisely what the Medical-Psychological Assessment (MPU) is: a review of your fitness to drive. Therefore, the mutual recognition obligation still applies. In other words, you are then permitted to drive again in Germany. Nothing has changed in this respect as a result of the 4th EU Driving Licence Directive. However, penalties can now be enforced across borders. If you have any questions about this, please feel free to write to me in the comments section.
