Denmark implements EU General Safety Regulation Phase 3 in 2026 requiring advanced distraction monitoring in all new cars, expands environmental zones with stricter particle filter requirements, introduces updated speed limit signage, and increases penalties for dangerous driving near cyclists.
Sikkerhedsregler
Gælder fra 7. juli 2026
Før
Basic ADAS required
Since July 2024, new cars required ISA, AEB, lane-keeping, and drowsiness detection based on driving patterns
Efter (2026)
Camera-based distraction monitoring
All new cars must have Advanced Driver Distraction Warning (ADDW) with in-cabin camera detecting phone use, eating, or looking away from the road
GSR2 Phase 3 adds camera-based distraction detection from July 2026. Your car will alert you if you look at your phone or away from the road for too long. ISA, AEB, and lane-keeping were already mandatory from July 2024. Know these systems for your køreprøve.
Miljøzoner
Gælder fra 1. juli 2026
Før
Euro 5 diesel exempt
Diesel vehicles meeting Euro 5 standards could enter environmental zones without particle filters
Efter (2026)
Particle filter required for older diesel
All diesel vehicles registered before 2015 must have an approved particle filter to enter miljøzoner in Copenhagen, Aarhus, Odense, and Aalborg
Denmark's four largest cities have stricter miljøzone rules from July 2026. If you drive a pre-2015 diesel, you need an approved particle filter and the green miljøzone sticker. Foreign vehicles are also covered - check before driving into city centers.
Bøder & Straffe
Gælder fra 1. januar 2026
Før
Standard fine of DKK 1,500
Failing to yield to cyclists or passing too close carried standard traffic fine
Efter (2026)
DKK 2,500 fine + conditional suspension
Fines increased for right-turn cyclist collisions; conditional license suspension for serious incidents; mandatory mirror check before turning
Denmark takes cyclist safety very seriously. The "højresvingsulykke" (right-turn accident with cyclists) is a major focus. Always check your right mirror and blind spot before turning right. Fines are now DKK 2,500 and you can lose your license.
Hastighedsgrænser

Før
40 km/h advisory near schools
Reduced speed limits near schools were advisory and inconsistently applied
Efter (2026)
30 km/h mandatory school zones
Mandatory 30 km/h speed limit within 200 meters of all primary schools during school hours (7:30-16:00)
From August 2026, all primary schools will have mandatory 30 km/h zones active during school hours. Watch for the new signage with time indicators. These zones are actively enforced with speed cameras.
