Final report
Publication metadata
This Evaluation assessed the relevance, EU–added value, efficiency, effectiveness, coherence and sustainability of Directive 2015/413/EU (“CBE Directive”). The CBE Directive allows enforcement authorities of the Member State where a road traffic offence has been committed to pursue and fine the owners of vehicles registered in other EU Member States (cross-border enforcement of road traffic rules), while also promoting road users’ awareness. This Evaluation also assessed whether there is a need to amend the CBE Directive in order to improve its effectiveness. The analysis found that the CBE Directive introduced measures that are strictly necessary in order to ensure the follow-up of offences committed by non-resident drivers. In addition, the analysis concluded that the CBE Directive is facilitating the cross-border enforcement in a cost-effective way and it has likely improved road safety through the credibility enhancement of enforcement of road traffic rules. However, the analysis also found out that the CBE Directive did not address all pending issues that are hindering the effectiveness of cross-border enforcement. Therefore, this Evaluation recommends, for the long term, the adoption of EU measures allowing for mutual recognition of sanctions for road traffic offences and cooperation in investigations between enforcement authorities of Member States.
