lpv:translated text	". The majority of Europe’s road network is designed to cater for the typical dimensions of modern heavy goods vehicles. The Commission favours ‘gigaliners’, however. ‘Gigaliners’ are up to 25 metres in length and weigh up to 60 tonnes. These giants impair the field of vision of other drivers and the overtaking distances on national roads are increased dramatically. Furthermore, much greater damage, both to people and vehicles, is to be expected when collisions occur. The EU’s plans to halve the number of fatal road accidents by 2020 thus seems like pie in the sky. Moreover, we can expect an increase in road haulage. I am therefore decidedly in favour of banning ‘gigaliners’ from our roads and favouring safer modes of transport like shipping."@en1
