Back on Track to Reach the EU 2020 Road Safety Target? 7th Road Safety PIN Report

The Road Safety Performance Index (PIN) was established in 2006 by the European Transport Safety Council to evaluate the European Union's effort to halve the number of road fatalities by 2020. This 7th PIN report covers the 27 Member States of the European Union, together with Israel, Norway, the Republic of Serbia and Switzerland. The first chapter examines trends in road deaths. 2012 saw 2,661 fewer road deaths than in 2011 with a total of 27,700 people killed in the EU27 and 313,000 seriously injured. The second chapter looks at collisions involving heavy goods vehicles, light goods vehicles, and buses. It provides country comparisons, collision characteristics, and policy recommendations. Chapter three looks at road safety and gender. In the past decade 358,000 males and 113,000 females have been killed on EU roads. Recommendations are provided to address road safety gender bias.
