Onderzoek Inhaalverbod vrachtverkeer / Study on prohibition for trucks to overtake

May 1, 2003 - Sep 30, 2003

Project description

To carry out the project, two prime international instruments were analysed the Convention on Road Traffic and the Convention Road Signs and Signals. This study was supplemented by a brief analysis of EU law and policy and a comparative study of a number of European countries. On this basis, it was concluded that the introduction of a dynamic prohibition for trucks to overtake would not seem inconsistent with public international law and be feasible in the light of experiences in the countries examined.

Topic

European Law

Objective

Advising the Ministry as to the feasibility, in the international and European legal context, of introducing a dynamic prohibition, depending on the intensity of traffic, for trucks to overtake.
