Question No 46 by Saïd El Khadraoui ()
Research by Utrecht University has shown that mopeds and scooters are emitting large quantities of fine and ultra-fine dust particulates. The researchers measured emissions absorbed by cyclists and motorists in 12 medium-sized towns. This showed that cyclists were absorbing an excessive quantity of fine particulates when they were close to a moped. It seems that mopeds actually emit more particulates per second than heavy goods vehicles. Directive 2002/51/EClays down emission standards for vehicles of this type. But it does not mention particulates at all.
Is the Commission aware of the pollution problem from scooters? What will the Commission be doing to deal with the problem in an adequate manner?"@en1
