The Ruidera city council has amended the regulations for its motorhome area, adding new categories of very serious infractions. These include identity fraud in the traveler registry to exceed maximum stay periods or avoid fees. Penalties include a ban on access for up to six months for serious violations and up to one year for very serious ones. The change follows an incident where a person attempted to register as a resident in the area and use it as permanent housing.

Around a dozen fines have been issued this month to caravans and motorhomes for breaching municipal regulations. The penalties are for infractions related to parking, camping, and using the vehicles as permanent residences. Local rules prohibit staying in the same spot for over seven days, camping, or using the vehicle as a habitual dwelling.
