   Eingereicht von Peter Lundgren · ECR

   Hinzugefügt: (18 a) Currently, when issuing driving licences for group 1, namely for drivers of vehicles of categories A, A1, A2, AM, B, B1 and BE, most Member States have established some form of fitness check to drive, beyond the eyesight test. Such a check may vary from a self-assessment form to a medical examination, carried out by general practitioner or a specialist doctor or a testing centre. When renewing driving licences for group 1, few Member States require a medical examination. There are also few Member States that have established a national mechanism for reporting significant changes in the fitness to drive. In general, when issuing and renewing driving licences for group 2, namely for drivers of vehicles of categories C, CE, C1, C1E, D, DE, D1 and D1E, the requirements are more stringent and detailed, by mandating a medical examination.

   Recital 35 a (new)

   Eingereicht von Peter Lundgren · ECR

   Hinzugefügt: (35 a) During the preparations for the review of this directive, the Commission should take into consideration to the fullest extent that Member States have different geographical and societal challenges they face when aiming to improve road safety. Indeed, while some Member States are successfully aiming to enforce road traffic rules through the so-called demerit point systems, others are choosing different methods, such as imposing stricter sanctions immediately or putting more effort into targeted enforcement and prevention campaigns. Moreover, account should also be taken of the fact that demerit point systems themselves can be significantly different between Member States that choose to apply them. As such, resources and attention should be directed to other measures which can increase road safety, while also letting Member States address their diverse challenges in ways they believe to be the most efficient.
