  1. Julien FERNANDEZ General directorate for infrastructure, transportation and sea French Ministry of transport 16 juin 2016 ECR conference Vilnius 16 juin 2016 Challenges and perspectives of road transport controls

  2. The road transport : an open but regulated market • Some figures – road transport • Europe  • 72% of the land freight 90% of the passengers • 5 M Km of roads • 10 M of employees • France • 85 % of the land freight, 30 % of the passengers • 400 000 km of national and local roads, and Highways (11500 km) • 500 000 of employees(Passengers : 100 000 freight : 400 000) • 360 000 vehicles > Road transport is crucial for the european single market > Supervision and controls are a major challenge for the european and national authorities

  3. The road transport : an open but regulated market • The european regulation : main texts • Regulation (EC) 561/2006 • Regulation (EC) 165/2014 • Regulation (EC) 1071-72-73/2009 • Directive 2014/47 • Directive 2015/719 • Directive 2006/22

  4. The road transport : an open but regulated market • The French regulation : main texts • The transport code Cabotage, social regulation, accreditation of the control officers • The highway code Weight and dimension, traffic rules • Other text : traffic bans for week-ends (national regulation)

  5. Controls priorities and modalities in France • Interministerialpriorities for road control Government instruction - december 2013 • Social regulation, tachograph fraud (décret 2010-418), • Illegal Cabotage, illegal employment • Market access and professional conditions • Overloadings controls • Roadworthiness roadside checks

  6. Controls priorities and modalities in France • Organization and resources for control • 500 control officers from the Ministry of transport • 7000 control officers (Home office, Customs) • Periodic evaluation • Budget law • Specific evaluations

  7. Controls priorities and modalities in France • Controls methodology • Initial and continuous training • Experts networks • Controls Check list • Driver documents • Vehicle documents • Roadworthiness • Tachograph

  8. Controls priorities and modalities in France • Controls figures (2015) • Roadside controls : 35 000 identified infringements • 50 % of the infringements : driving and resting time / tachograph • Approx. 1 M controls / year • Penalties / Sanctions • Criminal and administrative sanctions • Examples of sanctions : • Illegal Cabotage : fine up to 15000 € • Overloadings : Cumulative fines. Example : 46,4 tons for max legal weight 38 tons = 8 x « class 4 penalty » (135 €) 1080 €

  9. The forthcoming challenges • Main issues for control • Limited ressources / growing market and road traffic • Frauds, illegal behaviour : • Tachograph frauds (« old » and « new » frauds) • Illegal cabotage • Overloadings (…)

  10. The forthcoming challenges • Co-operation between public authorities • Euro Contrôle route : current activities and evolutions (EGTC) Incoming objectives : • Increase number of member state • More coordinated actions • Sharing tools • Share training (ECR Académie) > Coordination : key-issue for the harmonization of controls practices

  11. The forthcoming challenges • Develop intelligent control tools • ERRU and « risk rating system » • Pre-selection tools : WIM systems, Diagnostic tools • Automatic direct enforcement • Generalization and harmonization of smart control tools : a main challenge
