Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Court of Appeal dismissed the defendant's appeal against a traffic fine for driving a vehicle without a valid technical inspection. The defense argued that the lack of a technical certificate did not constitute a crime under the relevant article, noting the vehicle was being taken to a diagnostic station. The court rejected this, holding that a vehicle without current technical approval is legally undrivable and the police detention of the registration document further confirmed the vehicle was not permitted on the road.
