The Civil Guard has investigated six people this weekend in the Balearic Islands for driving a motor vehicle without the corresponding license or after having lost its validity by court order. Among the cases detected, the one of a 31-year-old man of Paraguayan nationality, intercepted in Santa Eulàriain Ibiza, for not having the required driving license. The control device, carried out in several locations in Mallorca and Ibiza, included vehicle and documentation verification points in strategic roads, with the aim of ensuring public safety. In these operations, the agents of the Santa Eulària post identified the driver from Ibiza, who is now facing a judicial investigation for infringing road regulations.
Reinforcement of traffic controls
Within the framework of these actions, five other drivers were investigated in Mallorca. In Pollensa-Alcúdia, a young Spanish woman aged 18 and a North African man aged 20 were caught driving without ever having obtained a license. On the other hand, in Inca, two men of Spanish and Peruvian nationality were identified when driving despite having had their driving licenses withdrawn by judicial decision. On the other hand, in Calvià, the agents of the Main Post investigated a 20 year-old woman of Romanian nationality for driving without having obtained the required authorization.
Driving without a license: a risk for all
The Guardia Civil emphasizes the danger that this behavior represents for road safety, both for the offenders themselves and for the rest of the road users. Driving without the proper license is not only a serious infringement of the regulations, but also increases the risk of accidents and their consequences. The proceedings against those investigated have been referred to the competent judicial authorities, who will determine the corresponding penalties on a case-by-case basis.
