A technical modification to your vehicle means that the operating licence is extinguished. What consequences should you anticipate if you nevertheless use the vehicle on public roads?

Using a vehicle that has undergone technical modifications without an operating license can have serious consequences under German traffic laws. Each option you selected represents a significant legal repercussion:

1. A public authority fine: This is a standard penalty for operating a vehicle that does not comply with legal requirements.

2. An entry into the Central Register of Road Traffic Offenders: This can occur when a violation is recorded and can affect your driving record, leading to further legal repercussions.

3. The loss of insurance cover: If you operate a vehicle without a valid operating license, your insurance may refuse to cover any damages incurred in an accident, leaving you financially liable.

It is crucial to recognize that all these consequences are interconnected, and failing to adhere to vehicle modification regulations can lead to severe penalties affecting both your legal standing and financial security.
