Recital 9 a (new)
Recital 9 a (new)
(9a) Riders of L-category vehicles belong to a vulnerable road user group with the highest fatality and injury rates among all road users. This Regulation should therefore be aligned with the European Road Safety Policy 2011-2020 and should introduce effective primary safety measures to provide the riders with vehicles equipped with the safest reasonably affordable technologies. Along with requirements for safe cornering and lighting and anti-tampering measures, this Regulation introduces mandatory Anti-lock Breaking Systems (ABS) for new motorcycles of certain categories. The efficiency of the chosen safety measures, which should be complemented by better training and education for riders of L-category vehicles and adapted road infrastructure, is well tested and proven by research and studies,
