Among the measures of the reform of the Code of the Stradin discussion in the Chamber of Deputies, the proposal presented by CNEL, the National Council for the Economy and Labor, to make mandatory the PEC for all motorists, so as to use a certified and fast tool through which to send fines and fines.
The highway code changes, the mandatory PEC arrives: the reason for the proposal
In fact, the intention of the CNEL is to make it more automated and therefore quick the operation using Certified Email. Through this system, the sending of the communication would be immediate and above all traceable, thanks to the indication of when it was sent and when the e-mail was received.
As with any PEC, fines received in the user’s mailbox are also considered delivered if the message is not read. As if we didn’t open the envelope received with the fine inside, the notification is valid all the same and the payment times start from that moment.
The highway code changes, the mandatory PEC arrives: the advantages
In this way the disputes relating to the current system of notification of the fine to the citizen would be reduced, who in this way, in the event of non-delivery of the fine and the report, would not be forced to take the time to go to the post offices to collect them in person.
In addition, the driver would save about € 10 for notification fees included in any offense, provided for shipment by registered A / R.
If approved, the standard would change thearticle 80 of the Highway Code, that relating to vehicle inspection, providing that “at the time of vehicle registration, or periodic inspection of the same, the owner communicates his certified e-mail address for the purposes of the notifications referred to in article 201 and the provisions of the interministerial decree of 18 December 2017 “.
In the particular case of the professionals registered in their own register, this measure is already valid from first October, as from this date on by law to have a certified mailing address for professional communications.
For these categories, in fact, the PEC has the same value as the “digital home“And, the reason why in the event of a contravention, the assessors are authorized to notify the report directly to the certified mail address indicated by the professional. If they don’t have it, they could risk it too Suspension from the Register.
