Addressing the UNECE Conference on “Improving Global Road Safety”, IRU Head of Sustainable Development, Jens Hügel, highlighted that very few governments have statistics available on the main causes of accidents involving trucks. He called upon governments to use the internationally approved methodology, tools and recommendations provided by the “European Truck Accident Causation (ETAC)” scientific study commissioned jointly by the EU Commission and IRU in order to target the main causes, and in so doing, effectively and efficiently enhance road safety.
