Traffic regulations and enforcement in Czechia and Slovakia

Overview

Traffic regulations and law enforcement measures in the Czech Republic and Slovakia have seen recent updates and increased scrutiny.

In the Czech Republic, regulations mandate strict adherence to vehicle technical inspections, noting that vehicles are legally prohibited from public roads once an inspection date passes. Additionally, specific rules govern road markings, distinguishing between the prohibition of overtaking and the crossing of solid lines.

In Slovakia, new regulations effective in September introduce harsher penalties for significant speeding, with fines reaching up to 1,300 euros and potential driving bans. Law enforcement activities include prevention campaigns in the Trnava region and warnings in Košice regarding vehicle security. In the Czech Republic, police in Plzeň have implemented high-security measures for a local parade due to heightened risk levels, while investigations continue into dangerous driving incidents in Havířov.
