1.3. CAR PURCHASE: http://www.diplomaticplate.com/index.php?sayfa=ek_sayfa&id=15 It is a private web-site but explains a little of the legal procedures to buy diplomatic cars. If you would like to purchase a car or learn about the latest developments in the used car market, please visit www.sahibinden.com or www.arabam.com. If you are planning to purchase a new car, there are salesrooms of various car brands along Konya and Eskişehir Roads.

1.4. TRAFFIC REGULATIONS

Traffic violations policy is based on the principle that persons enjoying privileges and immunities in Turkey are nevertheless obliged to respect Turkish laws and regulations. When members of staff of Foreign Missions are cited for traffic offences, the Protocol Department notifies the alleged offender's mission of the incident. The Ministry neither intervenes with the police to contest cited violations on behalf of persons with immunity, nor does it have the authority to dismiss violations. Staff members of the Missions will continue to call traffic police officers in case of car crashes. “Accident Reports for accidents resulted with economic loss” practice started as of 1 April 2008 does not cover vehicles with diplomatic/consular plates. Traffic fines: 1st Step: If you exceed the speed limit of 82 km between 10%-30% in the city center, you will be fined 189,00 TL Turkish Liras (If you pay in 15 days you will get 25 % discount which means 142 TL and you will receive 10 penalty points.) If you exceed the speed limit between 10 % and 30 %, it is 189,00 TL and 10 penalty points. In case you exceed the speed limit more than 30 %; 392,00 TL (Cash 294 TL) penalty plus 15 penalty points. 2nd Step: If you exceed the speed limit of 82 km more than 30% in the city center, you will be fined 392 Turkish Liras (If you pay in 15 days you will get 25 % discount which means 294 TL) and you will receive 15 penalty points. If you repeat exceeding the speed limit 5 times in a year your driver licence will be taken back. If you are involved in a traffic accident, you should not move your car unless you have an accident report in your car or you can reach an agreement with other driver. However, if you call the police, both drivers may be fined and your penalty points be revised. Parking Penalty: To stop or park on the highways without taking the necessary precautions Penalty Fee: 88 TL, Early payment 66 TL Penalty points : 20
