"Mr President, I voted against this report on recording equipment in road transport with particular reference to tachographs. I know how important tachographs are. I think we can all agree that they have road safety benefits and transport operators use them without complaint these days.
New technology should, of course, be embraced, particularly when it is aimed at combating fraud, but I cannot agree with the suggestions in this report that extra expenses should be imposed on European transport operators by agreeing to mandatory introduction of new technology without a clear cost-benefit analysis, and by that I do not mean an analysis of people not complying. I mean an analysis of the results of people not complying, which seem to be significantly missing. I am particularly concerned about the extra cost to transport operators of the requirement to retrofit into vehicles new technology by 2020, which seems to be an unnecessary expense and one which will disadvantage many in the transport sector."@en1
