Today, the Romanian presidency reached a provisional agreement with the European Parliament on amending the directive on the maximum length of lorries to bring forward the introduction of longer, aerodynamic cabs. Such cabs will save fuel, improve visibility, safety and comfort for drivers, and increase safety for other road users. The agreement now needs to be approved by member states’ representatives in the Council. A formal vote in both Parliament and the Council will follow later, with the aim of concluding this proposal during the Parliament’s current term.
