In fact, the current legislation provides for a administrative sanction fine for anyone who, without a justified reason, does not comply with the invitation to appear at the offices of the authority to provide information or to exhibit documents for the purpose of ascertaining a violation.
With the reform, however, there is no fine more in the event that there has been a simultaneous electronic verification of the existence and validity of the documents not shown by the driver.

Furthermore, in the text arriving in the Chamber of Montecitorio there are also other novelties; with the new Code the inspection bodies will be obliged, in the event of violation of the parking ban, to leave a warning of the violation on the car's windshield, which will allow the driver to pay the fine in a reduced form without the notification costs.
