". It is vital for car drivers to comply with regulations on driving hours and rest periods in order to maintain a high level of safety on Europe’s roads and protect passengers. The European Commission adopted a package of measures in January 2009 to prevent tachograph misuse and reinforce Member States’ options for verifying compliance with the regulations on driving time and rest periods. These measures are welcome given the numerous problems which have arisen over time with systems for registering working time, primarily to do with digital tachographs, as well as due to the fact that existing legislative provisions have been regarded as inflexible and difficult to enforce. I believe that one of the most important aspects which the Commission must bear in mind is the value of transposing Directive No 22/2006 into Member States’ national legislations and the harmonisation of national provisions drafted as a result of Article 19 of Regulation No 561/2006. Romania has fulfilled its obligations on these counts, but there are still Member States which have not completed this process, thereby resulting in problems in enforcing sanctions properly, on a cross-border basis, and in collecting fines arising from law infringements. Bearing in mind the six-monthly reports from Member States during this last reference period and the numerous difficulties indicated by carriers, I call on the European Commission to examine the possibility of revising Regulation No 561/2006."@en1
