The European Commission are
trying hard to reduce the numbers of
road accident
injuries across the continent.
From the
EC website:
Every European citizen has the right to live
and work in safety. So, when you are walking, cycling, biking or driving a
car or a truck, you should do so with a minimum risk to be hurt or killed.
Likewise, other road users should not be damaged by your own participation
in traffic.
Today, car manufacturers build ever safer cars
and trucks, road engineering produces safer roads, and we are becoming
increasingly conscious that we must act responsibly in traffic, to protect
our own and other people’s lives. Road safety has deservedly become a true
society issue in Europe and on a global scale, and the European Commission
contributes actively to this venture.
