"Mr President, improving road safety in Europe and preventing fatalities requires more training for drivers, but also putting a stop to the impunity enjoyed by those who commit the most dangerous offences.
There should be no borders when it comes to punishing those who threaten European citizens by jumping traffic lights, driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, not using seat belts or speeding when driving in Member States where they do not reside. That is what this initiative ensures through data exchange.
However, I also hope that correlation tables will be included in this directive, and I would join my fellow Members in asking the Council to make a special effort in that area.
I regret the fact that the United Kingdom, Ireland and Denmark have opted out, and I hope that in future we will all be aware that changing Member State while driving does not mean forgetting our training or our responsibilities at the wheel, particularly the responsibility to prevent fatalities."@en1
