"The objective adopted by the EU in 2001 was to halve the number of fatalities on the roads. The available data show a 36% reduction in 2001-2009 in the number of fatalities, which falls short of the objective set by the EU in 2001 with the publication of the Green Paper on European transport policy. Recent studies show a large percentage of non-residents involved in road accidents, particularly resulting from speeding.
On the other hand, penalties imposed for infractions committed in another Member State are those that most often go unenforced. This report, for which I voted, sets out new rules with the intention of facilitating the enforcement of penalties against drivers who commit offences relating to speeding, drive under the influence of alcohol or drugs, fail to wear a seatbelt, illegally use a mobile phone, use a forbidden lane, fail to wear a safety helmet or fail to stop at a red light in an EU country other than their own. Data sharing between Member States and the obligation to inform drivers are reinforced in the new directive. The aim is to put a stop to the impunity of any driver committing a traffic infraction in another EU Member State."@en1
