What penalty may be imposed on the owner of a vehicle that is being driven without insurance?
Traffic safety: Rules for the safety of people and cargo, and their identifiers
Explanation
The owner of a vehicle that circulates without insurance faces two main penalties:
- **Economic fine**: The owner must pay a fine for not having the mandatory civil liability insurance. This insurance is essential to protect other people, objects, or vehicles in case of an accident.
- **Vehicle immobilization**: If a traffic officer stops a vehicle that circulates without insurance, the vehicle will be immobilized immediately. Additionally, the owner will have to cover the expenses of the place where the vehicle is parked while it remains uninsured.
These measures aim to ensure that all vehicles in circulation are insured, thus protecting third parties in case of accidents.
