Abstract

The European Transport Safety Council (ETSC) welcomes elements of the proposal for a Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of two-or three- wheel vehicles and quadricycles (L-category vehicles). ETSC supports the initiative to increase vehicle safety in line with technical progress alongside the mitigation of transport emissions and the simplification of the current legislative framework. ETSC considers the proposal particularly useful as it addresses the most vulnerable group of road users. Stricter regulation on vehicle safety and in particular on mandatory equipment for active safety systems will contribute to reducing the current figure of more than 6,000 annual deaths among users of these vehicles on roads in Europe.
