New whip for drivers in the left lane. A fine will help for anyone who does not drive at least a hundred.

Italy is set to introduce fines for drivers who do not maintain a minimum speed of 100 km/h in the left lane of highways. This new regulation aims to address the issue of slow drivers in the left lane, which has been a persistent problem. The proposed law, expected to be approved by March next year, will impose a fine of 40 euros for violations. However, enforcement may be limited to highways with at least three lanes in each direction. Current Italian laws already penalize unnecessary use of the left lane, similar to regulations in the Czech Republic. Exceptions to the minimum speed requirement may be considered under specific circumstances, such as adverse weather conditions.
