Körlärartips
“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)

EDS on major highways
Electronic Detection System (EDS) speed cameras on select intercity highways and urban arteries

Körlärartips
“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
Körlärartips
“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
Körlärartips
“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.”
