On 1 March 2023, as part of the road safety package, the European Commission published a legislative proposal to help ensure EU-wide application of driving disqualifications. The proposal calls for increased cooperation, harmonisation of legislation, simplification of information exchange, capacity building, and improved public awareness efforts. In order to prevent impunity due to a lack of legislation, the proposal sets out rules to allow better EU-wide enforcement of driver disqualification decisions ...

Road safety has improved significantly in the EU, with the number of road fatalities falling by more than 60 % in the last 20 years. However, improvements in road safety fell short of the EU goals of decreasing the number of road deaths by 50 % between 2001 and 2010, and by an additional 50 % between 2011 and 2020. Directive (EU) 2015/413 facilitating cross-border exchange of information on road safety-related traffic offences – the Cross-border Enforcement (CBE) Directive – is one of the pillars ...

When it comes to road safety, the EU is the world leader by far. Over the past 20 years, the number of people killed on roads has decreased by 60 %, from around 51 400 in 2001 to around 20 600 in 2022. However, since 2014, this decrease has stagnated, with hardly any drop in the number of road fatalities in the years between then and 2020. Moreover, improvements in road safety have not been significant enough to meet the EU's 2010 and 2020 objectives for reducing road death numbers. Much more will ...

La Unión Europea se ha fijado el objetivo de crear un espacio europeo de seguridad vial durante el periodo 2010-2020. La competencia en la materia es sobre todo nacional; las medidas europeas se centran en el estado técnico de los vehículos, el transporte de mercancías peligrosas y la seguridad de las infraestructuras viarias.

This note seeks to provide an initial analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of the European Commission's impact assessment (IA) accompanying the above proposal, submitted on 31 May 2017 and referred to Parliament's Committee on Transport and Tourism. Digitisation and connectivity allow tolling without the user having to stop at toll barriers. Electronic tolls are levied by electronic systems that charge passing vehicles at a control point or across the infrastructure network. The vast majority ...

En 2011 el Parlamento Europeo y el Consejo adoptaron una Directiva para facilitar el intercambio transfronterizo de información sobre infracciones de tráfico en materia de seguridad vial. El propósito de esta Directiva era mejorar la seguridad vial mediante la creación de una base para el cumplimiento de las sanciones por infracciones de tráfico cometidas por conductores no residentes. En mayo de 2014 el Tribunal de Justicia de la Unión Europea declaró nula la Directiva al considerar que se había ...
