Amendment 85 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 7
Recital 7
(7) Longer and/or heavy goods vehicles may be used in cross- border transport if the two Member States concerned already allow it and if the conditions f. Any legislative proposal to authorise the cross- bor derogation under Article 4(3), (4) or (5) of the Directive are met. The European Commission has already provided guidance on the application of Article 4 of the Directive. The transport operations referred to in Article 4(4) do not have a significant impact on international competition if the cross- border use remains limited to two Member States where the existing infrastructure and the road safety requirements allow it. This balances the Member States’ right under the principle of subsidiarity to decide on transport solutions suited to their specific circumstances with the need to prevent such policies from distorting the internal market. The provisions of Article 4 (4) are clarified in this respect use of these vehicles must be accompanied by an impact assessment which takes into account the effects on modal shift, safety, social and employment conditions, SMEs, logistics, pollution and noise, in order to assess whether the legislative proposal is compatible with the Union’s main policy objectives as listed in the White Paper.
