Common rules for motorhome and drone owners in Italy

Italian publication Dronezine notes that many motorhome owners also use drones to film their travels. Since December 2019, liability insurance for drones has been mandatory in Italy, even for models under 250 grams, except for toys without cameras. Pilots must register on the D-flight portal and comply with UAS zone restrictions (no-fly zones near airports, prisons, crowded places). Drone insurance from Dronezine starts at €24.90 per year.

Cortina d'Ampezzo tightens controls on camper van parking

The municipality of Cortina d'Ampezzo announced stricter measures against illegal camping after another incident of degradation caused by a van parked in the city. The council reports litter, sewage, and irregular parking, but also highlights the limitations of current regulations, which make it difficult to fine motorhomes when they are simply parked. In the coming days, checks will be intensified with the support of the provincial police, especially on the Dolomite passes.

18-month-old chokes on potato in camper in Posatora: saved via phone instructions

In Posatora (Ancona), an 18-month-old child choked on a piece of undercooked boiled potato during dinner in a camper van. The parents, tourists from Romagna, immediately called 118, and the operator provided step-by-step instructions for pediatric airway clearance maneuvers. Rescuers from the Croce Gialla of Ancona and an emergency doctor arrived; the child had already begun to recover. He was taken to the Salesi children's hospital in yellow code for further checks.
