At checkpoints the police, check everything. In recent weeks, even the fuel tanks of the cars have been subjected to checks.
All the drivers who have their tanks in the tank are in trouble a particular type of diesel.
In Italy as all over the world, you are going through a difficult period, the economic crisis is making everything impossible, even get to the end of the month.
Everything has a higher cost, even the fuel whatever it is. Not all families are able to shop, someone has to give up even the use of the car because can’t pay for diesel or gasoline. This is why many choose to use a type of diesel that is not the traditional one.
The choice of families to rely on diesel that does not pass the checkpoints of the police
Unfortunately the car in every family it is also used several times a day for leisure and essential travel. For example, those who go to work must use it at least twice a day, if not more. Alternatively they can choose public transport which are not always reliable or in any case are not always present, for example in villages or small towns they are absent.
Who gives in to non-traditional diesel, it certainly does because it costs less, but it is not usable. Normal diesel is processed for a long time to be clear and free of contaminants and then be poured into the tanks of the cars without causing problems of any kind. This type of fuel passes checks at roadblocks. Not to exceed them is agricultural diesel, intended to be burned in thermal power plants.
Between the two types of diesel, there is no difference from a technical and chemical point of view, because they come from the same deposits. Except that the first is agricultural and therefore is modified with a green dye, while the second is more delicate. Agricultural diesel is reserved only for owners of farms, who can use it for working the land, in fact it is very difficult to find.
What if law enforcement finds the wrong diesel fuel in the car’s tank
However, someone manages to find it and introduce it in the tank of cars in the hope of not running into roadblocks that do not give hope or a way out, especially not in this period. In the event of arrest, you risk being indicted for fraud, as well as a fine of € 7,000 and imprisonment for up to 3 years.
You need to know that not only is it illegal to use this type of mixture if not for work, but also that although it can be a source of savings, it is a type of diesel that is harmful to cars. It could in fact cause irreparable damage to the vehicle.
