The European Union has set itself the ambitious target of cutting back the number of annual road deaths by 50% over nine years from 2001 to 2010. Are we on course to reach this target?

The European Transport Safety Council, under its Road Safety Performance Index (PIN) Programme, is monitoring progress toward the EU target for individual Member States, as well as for the EU as a whole.
