"In countries which still have a poorly developed road infrastructure, such as Poland, the safety of road travel is a serious challenge. The number of fatal victims continues to be appalling. Nearly 4 000 people died on Poland’s roads last year, and during the last long weekend alone, there were 71 fatalities. Citizens of other countries are also involved in these events, and they not infrequently underestimate the awful state of Poland’s roads.
Drunk drivers are a huge problem in many countries. Although the ambitious objective of reducing fatal accidents by half over the last decade has not been achieved, everything possible should still be done to increase the level of safety on the roads. The certainty of being punished for offences such as drinking and driving, failing to use seat belts or exceeding the speed limit committed in any of the EU’s Member States should definitely improve safety on the roads and reduce the risk to life associated with driving. I endorsed the report."@en1
