ETSC is the sole European NGO dedicated to improving the safety of all transport modes. It provides an impartial source of research-based advice on transport safety matters to the European Commission, the European Parliament, and to national governments and organisations concerned with transport safety throughout Europe. It seeks to identify, evaluate and promote effective measures on the basis of international research findings, good evidence and best practice, in areas which offer the greatest potential for a reduction in transport crashes and casualties. The positions of ETSC, its contribution to the international community of safety experts and its research-based policy-advice for European policy-makers are generated by the work of more than 200 experts.

Apart from policy and advocacy work, ETSC's activities are structured according to a number of projects: the Road Safety Performance Index (ranking member states on the basis of their road sfaety performance), the EU Road Safety Exchange (on exchange of best practices between member states), Safe & Sober and SMART (on drink driving), the Drug Driving Project and the LEARN! Project on road safety education. ETSC is also responsible of the dissemination work package in an H2020 project led by the University of Hasselt, i-DREAMS.
ETSC organises several events every year (on line or in person) on topics such a general road safety policies, drink driving, drug driving, speed and road safety education.

Meetings
Meetings
15 meetings found. Download meetings
The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.
1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
