NetherlandPeople in Netherland can now pay for driving lessons with sex if the cash is not available.
Transport minister, Melanie Schultz van Haegen, and Justice minister, Ard van der Steur wrote a letter to the Dutch parliament in response to a question from Gert-Jan Segers, a member of parliament with the socially conservative Christian Union party.
“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,” the letter reads.
This practise is named “ride for a ride”.
The ministers conclude that it is legal if both parties are over 18 and the arrangement was suggested by the teacher.
