lpv:spoken text	"We must aim to better protect vulnerable road users, including pedestrians, cyclists, children and the elderly. That 35 000 people lose their lives in road accidents in the EU each year is simply unacceptable. That 1.5 million people are seriously injured is an astonishing figure and we must take action to address this problem. In order to address this situation, we must have a clear and comprehensive idea of the scale and nature of the problem. We need to have comparable data on the causes of injuries and accidents throughout the EU. The EU requires a system for compiling harmonised European statistics on the causes of accidents, with a view to improving our understanding of the problem. These statistics can draw on the wealth of knowledge and experience already gained in this area in individual Member States. If road safety is to be improved, a coherent and integrated approach is needed. In order to do this, we must first have a clearer understanding of the nature of these road accidents."@en1
