FEMA appeal to Riders
Motorcyclists’ interests must be in the new EU Member States is needed!
Represent the interests of motorcyclists of your country in the European Union. Be part of FEMA, the European Motorcyclists Lobby.
In the
context of the enlargement process of the European Union (EU), FEMA, the European Motorcyclists’ organisation, seeks to establish contacts with road riders’
organisations in the new EU Member States.
It is important to join our efforts and be ready to properly represent and promote motorcyclists’ interests in your
country as new EU Member State. FEMA, the Federation of European Motorcyclists’ Associations, is regrouping national road riders organisations, and exists to represent
riders’ interests at the European and International institutions.
FEMA unites 22 riders’ organisations across Europe who are representing motorcyclists in
their countries.
Since 1988, the European Motorcyclists’ Lobby, through its work with the EU institutions, is making sure that motorcyclists’ interests are
looked after when EU legislation related to motorcycles is drafted, in areas such as Road Safety, Mobility, Consumers’ issues, Environment and Technical Standards.
FEMA works also proactively and undertakes EU projects in the .eld of rider training and rider friendly infrastructure.
We also work at the International level through
representations within the United Nations’ Working Groups dealing with motorcycle issues.
Most of the laws and regulations motorcyclists have to comply with come
from Europe, it is therefore crucial that a European representation of riders exists so that we can act directly on these regulations before they are implemented in the EU Member
States.
Your country is part of the European Union and, within the process; you already have to comply with existing EU laws.
These have been closely followed and
acted upon by FEMA to make sure that motorcyclists get the best deal and are not overlooked. If you are a road riders’ organisation or group and wish to do something for the
riders of your country, we urge you to contact the FEMA office based in Brussels, so that together we can join our efforts and efficiently represent and promote the interests of
motorcyclists in your country.
