Dica do Instrutor
“Turkish traffic fines are adjusted annually for inflation and have increased significantly in 2026. A seatbelt violation costs TRY 3,400, using a mobile phone while driving TRY 6,800, and running a red light TRY 3,400. Always wear your seatbelt and put your phone away - these fines add up quickly.”
New Vehicle Safety Requirements (UNECE Aligned)
Em vigor a partir de 1 de julho de 2026
Basic safety requirements
ABS and ESC required; limited ADAS requirements for new vehicles
Expanded safety mandate
All new vehicles must include AEB, lane departure warning, and tire pressure monitoring; imported vehicles must meet updated UNECE standards for frontal and side impact protection
Fonte Oficial: Türkiye Standards Institution (TSE)
Dica do Instrutor
“Turkey is aligning vehicle safety requirements with UNECE standards. New vehicles must include AEB (automatic emergency braking), lane departure warning, and TPMS. This brings Turkey closer to EU standards. For your driving test, understand what these systems do and their limitations.”
Expanded Electronic Speed Enforcement (EDS)
Em vigor a partir de 1 de março de 2026
EDS on major highways
Electronic Detection System (EDS) speed cameras on select intercity highways and urban arteries
Nationwide EDS expansion
EDS cameras expanded to 2,000+ additional locations including all O-roads (motorways), D-roads (state highways), and school zones; average speed measurement added on key corridors
Fonte Oficial: KGM General Directorate of Highways
Dica do Instrutor
“Turkey is massively expanding its EDS speed camera network. Average speed measurement is being added on key highway corridors. Speed limits in Turkey are 50 km/h urban, 90 km/h rural, and 120 km/h on motorways. With cameras everywhere, maintaining the speed limit is essential.”

Re: Updated New Driver Restrictions
Dica do Instrutor
“New drivers in Turkey now face a 2-year probation period instead of 1 year. During this time, your penalty point threshold is lower (60 instead of 100), meaning fewer violations before license suspension. You must also complete an advanced driving course within your first year.”
Re: Stricter Rear Seatbelt Enforcement
Dica do Instrutor
“Rear seatbelt enforcement is getting serious in Turkey. The driver is responsible for ensuring all passengers under 18 are buckled up. Each unbuckled rear passenger means a TRY 3,400 fine. Some cities are piloting camera-based detection of seatbelt non-use.”
