Like everywhere in France this weekend, bikers demonstrate in Marseille. Indeed, by January 1, 2022, owners of two-wheelers may be forced to go through the technical control box. While other European states have already adopted this measure, the government has yet to decide on the issue. The objectives of this European directive: reduce pollution and the risk of accidents, motorcycle and scooter drivers being particularly vulnerable on the road
On the side of the FFCM (French Federation of Angry Bikers), the news stirs up anger: “” The right of the biker is often flouted. It is considered that such a control would penalize the users financially, without bringing any improvement in safety and would therefore only be of interest to improve the profits of the control bodies. “
A meeting is scheduled for next week with Transport Minister Jean-Baptiste Djebbari.
