"Madam President, I voted for the González Álvarez measure on the regulation on the monitoring of carbon dioxide emissions from new passenger cars. Why am I in favour of this measure? It goes without saying that I support the monitoring of new passenger cars when they are first placed on the market, but my vote in favour of the motion also contains a call to make greater efforts in the monitoring of second-hand cars, for, in actual fact, I would argue that new cars are never to be found on the road due to the fact that the very act of driving them along a road ages them by definition. It is, above all, ‘old’ cars, the cars which have been in use for a number of years, which cause atmospheric pollution. I call for monitoring of these ‘old’ cars, to ensure that they are always in a state of good health and to prevent them from harming the earth’s atmosphere. I therefore support the use and preservation of pensioner cars as well."@en1
