Abstract

In several parts of the world there has been increasing concern about the contribution that heavy goods vehicles (HGV) make to the overall road accident situation. The present study shows that in general the situation in Europe, is improving due to a complicated set of interrelated reasons. The accident situation in general terms is first discussed, based predominantly on accident statistics for Great Britain. This is followed by a detailed comparison of the accident statistics for several European countries. Remedial measures are considered.
