"Given the growing volume of traffic on Europe’s roads, it is essential for us to take measures to increase road safety. Greater control is needed over transit traffic in particular, in order to reduce the risk of accidents. The risk is particularly high in this case because the drivers are often put under time pressure by the haulage companies and, therefore, overtiredness is a frequent problem. Recording devices are available in the form of mandatory analogue and digital tachographs, but it is still possible to manipulate these devices. Excessively long journeys with breaks that are too few in number and too short significantly increase the risk of accidents occurring. I have abstained because, while I agree with the rapporteur on the one hand that the introduction of intelligent tachographs can have a positive impact on the working life of truck drivers, on the other hand, I do not share her opinion that EU-wide regulations concerning the monitoring of tachographs are needed, as the Commission is proposing. The regulatory bodies in the individual countries should continue to investigate and assess the situation on their own roads."@en1
