"Road accidents kill and injure thousands of people in Europe every year – every single case is a tragedy. Road safety is an important issue, and it is a cross-border one. However, we cannot legislate away people’s own responsibility on the road. It is neither reasonable nor effective for the European Parliament to establish detailed rules on road safety, and creating rules that are impossible to supervise and monitor will only create an uncertain legal situation. Road safety is primarily the responsibility of the Member States and a matter that is subject to the principle of subsidiarity. We are nevertheless supporting the report as a whole in order to emphasise the importance we attach to the issue of road safety, but would hereby like to make known our view that forthcoming European legislative proposals in this area should not be as far-reaching as this own-initiative report."@en1
