Building on the progress of previous editions, The Safe Ride to the Future 3.0 reaffirms the motorcycling sector’s commitment to improving road safety by embracing cutting-edge technologies, promoting high-quality rider training, and advocating for inclusive policies fully integrating motorcycles into a fast-evolving mobility ecosystem.
The Safe Ride to the Future 3.0 highlights the European Motorcycling Training Quality Label, an industry-led initiative that has already certified 36 post-license training schemes across 11 countries. The strategy also outlines how the motorcycle sector is working with European and national stakeholders to promote policies that accompany the increasing motorcycles’ use in a safe and sustainable manner.
ACEM fully supports the Safe System approach, tackling road safety holistically by considering human, vehicle, and infrastructure factors. By working together with governments, road authorities, and safety organisations, the motorcycle industry is committed to achieving the EU’s Vision Zero goals, striving for zero road fatalities and serious injuries by 2050.
