"Mr President, it is amazing that it has taken so long to attempt to pass legislation to give the arm of traffic law the potential to cross EU Member State borders in order to save lives. It is even more amazing that the Council is hindering this from happening. It is also amazing that we set maximum speed limits for our cars, and then we produce vehicles that can travel twice or three times the maximum limits. It is also amazing that we have legal alcohol limits for drivers, and yet we bombard our citizens – especially in the festive season – with alcohol advertisements. And we especially associate alcohol intake with sex appeal and manhood, in some cases.
Commissioner, please do not give up your fight. Please, fight with us against the Council, which is absent today, in order to save lives and make our roads a safer place to be."@en1
