"The adoption of this regulation sends a clear signal of support for the safety of the millions of European workers and citizens who travel every day on Europe’s roads. Thanks to Parliament’s hard work, significant amendments have been made to meet the demands voiced on many occasions by trade unions, workers and many small enterprises: the introduction of tachographs for all heavy goods vehicles weighing in excess of 2.8 tonnes and the introduction of weight sensors are two clear examples of the good work done during recent months within the committee and then in the Chamber. Too often, the needs of the market and strong competition between operators adversely affect working and health conditions for lorry drivers, and also seriously jeopardise the safety of the millions of European citizens on the EU’s roads and motorways. The balance that has been achieved in this regulation between the needs for security and control and the flexibility to be given to self-employed workers and small enterprises is an excellent outcome, and has therefore been broadly supported by the majority of MEPs."@en1
