On 23rd April 2026 the ‘Curatorium of Road Safety’ Organisation, in the framework of the SCPA Programme Grant Scheme, in cooperation and with the support of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, organised the next information and awareness-raising activity with ‘Sami Frashëri’ high school senior students.
This activity was held in continuation of the commitment to strengthening the culture of road safety and educating the younger generations. It aims to increase the awareness of youth on road safety and respect for traffic rules, placing special emphasis on high school senior students as a generation from which the quality of road behavior norms is expected to increase.
During the meeting, the students were informed about the legal restrictions for holders of category B driving licenses during the first two years from its issuance. According to the legislation in force, they are not allowed to drive motor vehicles with a specific power, in relation to the empty mass of the vehicle, greater than 55 kW/ton. For hybrid electric or plug-in vehicles, the allowed limit of specific power is 65 kW/ton, including the weight of the battery.
The graduates were also introduced to the consequences of using a vehicle without being equipped with a driving license, becoming aware of the administrative and criminal sanctions provided for by the law.
A very practical and interactive part of the activity was the demonstration with the Curatorium of Road Safety simulator vehicle, through which the youth had the opportunity to experience firsthand the vital importance of using a seat belt while driving.
