20 June 2017 – Who’s On Track? – The 2017 Road Safety Performance Index (PIN) Conference, Brussels

  • June 20, 2017

Norway House, Rue Archimède 17, 1000 Brussels, 20 June 2017, 13.30-18.30

The EU has set a target to halve road deaths by 2020. Which countries are on track, and which are playing catch-up?

At the 2017 PIN conference, ETSC launched its latest Road Safety Performance Index (PIN) annual report looking at why some countries are still making progress on road safety and some are going in reverse. We also highlighted two areas where action is needed to ensure future progress: work-related road safety and reducing deaths in single-vehicle collisions.

The event also saw the unveiling of this year’s PIN Award winner, presented to Switzerland for outstanding progress on road safety.
