Análisis de la falta de regulación respecto al incorrecto uso de licencias de conducir en el Ecuador.

Abstract

Within the licensing system in Ecuador, drivers progressively acquire skills that allow them to use more complex vehicles as their training progresses. Under this modality, it is logically understood that a driver of heavy vehicles knows how to drive the entire range of vehicles that are below him. However, the COIP sanctions as a violation the driving of vehicles with licenses other than those necessary, when the correct thing would be to use licenses that are less than necessary. In practice, it is common for transit personnel to encounter this situation, being their duty to proceed, when it is logically contradictory. To carry out this work, specialized bibliography was used, information taken from the Web and the exegetical method was applied, which allowed us to analyze the main normative bodies of the Ecuadorian legal system that regulate the matter of traffic, resulting in the interpretation of the need to exclude this practice as a traffic violation in the COIP. Keywords: driver's license, types of vehicles, criminal law, administrative law, traffic offense.
