A new report from ETSC says that:
Europe must boost safety for cyclists and walkers
Antonio Avenoso, Executive Director of ETSC said:“Despite the health and environmental benefits, people who cycle and walk are not getting a fair share of improvements in road safety in Europe. This year, the EU has a very powerful weapon at its disposal, namely the review of safety requirements for new vehicles – it should not shy away from mandating the changes that can save the most lives.”
