Question 7272 — road safety

Summary

Mr. Pouria Amirshahi questions the Minister to the Minister of Regional Planning and Decentralization, responsible for transport, following the submission, on April 28, 2025, of the report entrusted to Mr. Emmanuel Barbe on road violence. This report highlights several useful structural measures in terms of urban development, awareness-raising and prevention of risky behavior. These proposals go in the right direction to reduce road insecurity; they will have to be integrated into the next budget in order to be put in place. However, it may seem incomplete given the absence of precise recommendations to prevent and punish acts of deliberate violence committed by certain violent drivers. Even though these behaviors seriously endanger the lives of the most vulnerable users (pedestrians, cyclists), the report does not proposes no measures aimed at excluding these individuals from circulation. This deficiency is all the more striking as this report followed the assassination of Paul Varry, a cyclist killed last October after being deliberately hit by a driver on a cycle path. This tragedy has caused a collective awareness of the issue of violence between road users, relaunching the need for a response criminal law in the face of motorized violence. The Paris en Selle association, for example, requests the suspension of licenses and the withdrawal of vehicles for any perpetrator of violence. Beyond the issue of violence, it is the entire issue of road user safety that must be addressed. Proposals exist such as, for example, the assessment at regular intervals of drivers' driving ability, proposed in particular by the association “Saving lives is allowed”. He asks him if additional measures are being considered to integrate measures into the action plan against road violence which will have an immediate effect, making it possible to remove dangerous drivers from the roadways from now on.
