Question juridique clé
Whether driving a car in very poor technical condition justified a one-month driver’s licence withdrawal as a medium-severity traffic violation.
Solution extraite
The defects shown in the record did not establish a concrete danger to road safety sufficient for a medium-severity violation; the licence withdrawal was therefore unjustified.
Motifs extraits
Although the vehicle was in very poor condition and the defects should have been visible to the driver, the files did not show that the rust damage or other defects endangered traffic safety concretely. The case did not correspond to the typical precedents for a medium-severity offence.
