Politico reported this week that the European Commission has acknowledged the concerns raised by the influx of US-style pick-up trucks entering the EU [1], in response to a letter [2] co-signed by ECF and seven other organisations. Together, the organisations called on the EU Commission to close loopholes in European and national legislation that currently allow these vehicles to enter the EU with limited to no safety or environmental protection regulations.
Glad to hear they are finally acknowledging the issue.
It’s time that that loophole gets closed. These dangerous land-boats have no place on our roads.
I (US native) was in Amsterdam last week. We saw two Yank Tanks and they were completely out of place. One could barely move down a road since it was so big.
Please keep pushing your EU leadership to protect your cities, safety, and way of life (so much better than the US) from these city destroying monstrosities.
