For the first time since 2006, the EU will have changed the union's choir card rules. Even now, however, the EU Parliament must vote on a change in the law that can make the Tesla Cybertruck legal in Denmark.
The Tesla Cybertruck may come to Dannark completely legally. But it requires a majority in the EU Parliament to vote for a new directive in the area of choir cards.
This is written by the GermanAutobild .
According to the media, the EU Parliament must vote to raise the permitted weight limit for passenger car registration cards – the so-called category b registration card – from 3,500 kilos to 4,250 kilos.
A weight limit that – as Motor magazine points out – practically makes it impossible for Tesla to sell the Cybertruck in Europe. However, it is neither one nor the other electric car that makes politicians in the EU reconsider the weight limit.

Instead, the reason for the debates is that entire car types are becoming increasingly heavier. Specifically, it is the growing pains of motorhomes that is now causing the EU to reconsider the set of rules.
However, a decision will not be made right now. Instead, it is first something that EU politicians will look at after the new EU Parliament has been elected at the beginning of June.
Autobild further writes that the German caravanning industry association welcomes an increased weight tolerance. Here it is imagined that a new weight of up to 4.25 tonnes will make it possible for far more people, e.g. to get behind the wheel of motorhomes.
However, it is not only increased weight classes that the EU must discuss when the new parliament takes place this summer. The same must be done with a number of strictures in the choir card area.
It is, among other things, submitted a proposal to prohibit certain motorists from driving at all times of the day. Even if they haven't actually done anything illegal. Read more about it here .
