Responsibility for offenses committed against the traffic rules falls on the vehicle's registered owner.

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

In accordance with the consolidated text of the Law on Traffic, Motor Vehicle Circulation and Road Safety (Article 82), responsibility for offenses lies directly with the perpetrator, that is, the person who is driving at the time the offense is committed. The vehicle's registered owner has specific obligations (such as keeping the roadworthiness test (ITV) valid, taking out compulsory insurance or truthfully identifying the driver when required by the authority), but does not automatically assume traffic offenses committed by another person at the wheel. Therefore, stating that responsibility for those offenses falls on the registered owner is false.

Responsibility for offenses committed against the traffic rules falls on the vehicle's registered owner.
