A set of Enforcement Performance Indicators (EPI) that can be used for the analysis of the efficiency of the traffic law enforcement (TLE) chain is selected. The EPI were selected among the TLE data recommended by the European Commission (2004/345/EC using information on TLE data availability and guidelines on good practice for data collection. The selected EPI’s describe the current legislation and enforcement activities in the key areas of drink driving, speeding and restraint use. It should be stressed that this set of EPI’s reflects the current practices of enforcement and TLE data registration and collection, which may differ by the good practices recommended by task 4.3a. The proposed set consists of 16 EPI’s for speed, 17 for drink driving and 15 for restraint use enforcement. The advantage of the set of EPI selected in this working paper is that most of the needed data are available in many of the Member States. This means that the indicators can be created (or estimated) and used almost immediately, or in the very near future. The concrete values of the EPI’s are not given here, since the pilot data collection is not yet completed (it is expected to ready by October 2007).
