The Real Reason for EU Driving Licences
The concept of the standard European driving license stems entirely from a report written by Italian MEP Pietro Adonnino, in 1985 for the Milan Council, entitled “A Peoples’ Europe”.
The whole purpose of the report was to recommend ways of developing a “European identity”, to which effect Adonnino came up with a number of ideas.
His driving licence proposal was originally scheduled for adoption by 1 January 1986, and while a standard “Community model” driving licence had been set up in an earlier directive (80/1263/EEC), and modified by 91/439/EEC, it has not yet been made compulsory for member states.
Now, all that is to change. Adonnino’s recommendation is finally to come to fruition, the primary purpose of which is to promote in the “people of Europe” a sense of common identity.
Thus does the EU take a basically good idea, pervert it, distort it and hijack it for its own political ends.
