Highlights
General data collection for
EU Member States as
well as an
in-depth analysis for countries of the
project partners:
Croatia, Germany and
Spain
•
Data collection consisting of:
In-depth research of
available data combined with
survey data
Light trailers as well as two- and three wheel vehicles
Fleet sizes, mileage, PTI statistics and accident data
Collection and analysis of national
road safety measures
•
Three scenarios have been defined:
Scenario 0: base case (no PTI)
Scenario 1: complete inspection
Scenario 2: simplified inspection
• The results of a
Cost and Benefit Analysis finally led to
policy
recommendations
Trailers:
Lack of accident data
Reference country: Croatia
Two- and three-wheelers:
The case of Spain: comparing with and without
PTI
No alternative road safety measures identified

The PTI frequency for O1 trailers is: 0/3/3/3…
The PTI frequency for O2 trailers is: 0/2/1/1…
The current (2017) trailer failure rate in Croatia:
• O1 trailers: 12.74%
• O2 trailers: 11.35%

(0) Identification of the vehicle;
(1) Braking equipment;
(4) Lighting equipment and parts of the electrical system;
(5) Axles, wheels, tyres, suspension;

BCR for Croatia: 6.32
Trailers O-Vehicles (Croatia)
The average cost per PTI in Croatia is
around 20 Euros for trailers. Given that
there have been 28,884 checks, around
577,680
Euros
of
costs
can
be
estimated. Using the derived benefits
from the previous chapter, a maximum
benefit-cost ratio of
6.32 can be
estimated.
Two- and Three-Wheelers (Spain)
Given the
benefit of 99
Euros per
moped
checked and
considering the
21 Euros cost for
a PTI after taxes,
a
benefit-cost
ratio of around
4.73 is the
outcome.

Conclusions
Conclusions
Regardless of the lack of data, the benefit of
inspecting light trailers is greater than the cost
The case of Spain allow to compare the scenarios
with and without PTI for L vehicles, with a positive
impact
Both proposals are feasible with the equipment
already defined in Directive 2014/45/EU
