New PIN country ranking: Unprotected Road Users Left Behind in Efforts to Reduce Road Deaths
Press release - 10 May 2011
A total of 169,000 pedestrians, cyclists and users of powered two-wheeled vehicles have been killed on European roads since 2001; 15,300 of them in 2009.
These figures are a great cause for concern. Initiatives targeted at these types of road user will be crucial in reaching the
new target of halving road deaths for the 2011-2020 decade, said Antonio Avenoso.
