Policy recommendations on road safety for PTW

Advanced-stops

Road safety is one of the major challenges faced by the EU. Substantial improvements have been achieved in this area in recent years, but much remains to be done.

Road safety initiatives and policies must take into consideration vehicles’ safety features as well as users behaviour and infrastructure design and maintenance.

It is only by working together in these three areas that the number of accidents that affect motorcyclists will be further reduced.

Moreover, the motorcycle industry strongly believes that the number of fatalities amongst PTW users can, and must be further reduced. For this reason, it is essential that all stakeholders (i.e. industry, and public authorities as well as users and non-governmental organisations) join forces to promote an integrated approach to road safety.
