"Coming from a country where road accidents are assuming alarming proportions, I cannot but welcome any measure which tends towards increasing cross-border exchange of information concerning road safety-related traffic offences. In fact, in a Union aiming for more open and free movement of people and goods, it would be incomprehensible if offending citizens could take refuge in their respective national jurisdictions and were not held to account for infractions committed in other Member States. The safety of all those travelling on Europe’s roads requires that anyone breaking traffic rules be held liable under the civil, or even criminal, law, where justified, irrespective of where they are resident or what nationality they are. I hope that this will be another step in the right direction."@en1
