France is Taking the Right Road

We support ETSC position that the he French government’s proposed change is the right one. Deaths on undivided roads represent more than half of all deaths in France. Tackling inappropriate speed on these roads is a smart measure. The neighbouring region of Flanders in Belgium recently reduced its equivalent limit from 90km/h to 70km/h

We all know that the likelihood of collision, and the severity of injury, increases exponentially as speed is increasing (President J.Mersch)
