Dutch driving instructors can now legally accept sex as payment

Driving instructors in Holland are now legally allowed to accept sex as payment for lessons.
Yes – that’s 100% correct.The new law, called ‘Ride for a Ride’, has just been introduced by the Dutch government for any student as long as they are over the age of 18.


Prostitution is legal in Holland, if the person has a valid escort licence and pays their taxes on a self-employment basis, with this new law taking things one step further.
But not everyone is impressed by the ruling.
Gert-Jan Segers, from the conservative Christian Union Party, tabled a question to the Dutch parliament saying the practice should remain illegal.

Responding, Netherlands Transport Minister Melanie Schultz van Haegen and Justice minister Ard van der Steur said: ‘It’s not about offering sexual activities for remuneration, but offering a driving lesson.
‘It is important that the initiative lies with the driving instructor, and focuses on offering a driving lesson, with the payment provided in sexual acts.
‘When a sexual act is offered in lieu of financial payment, that is prostitution.’
Web searches for ‘Ride for a Ride’ have apparently increased after the law got the green light.
