"Over the past decades the transport sector has successfully made substantial investments to enhance energy efficiency, and has brought onto the markets intelligent technology with environmental and security benefits. Nevertheless, these efforts do not appear to be sufficient, since the parallel constantly increasing demand in this sector almost cancels them out.
We therefore need to take a fresh look at this difficult equation so as to enable us to respond to the challenge. The transport sector is a dynamic economic sector; it is technologically advanced and ever more competitive. Industry has made extensive investments in research and development in close consultation with institutional and private partners. Greater coordination is, however, necessary for us to draw all the added value from our efforts. Specific action in terms of informing citizens and raising their awareness, including as far as their behaviour is concerned, is essential. Moreover, we should be pursuing collaboration and coordination regarding progress in the field of fuel efficiency, investment regulation, stimulating a dynamic market for safer and less polluting vehicles and supporting technological innovation."@en1
