AMZS Wins EuroRAP Star Performer Award

The Slovenian motoring club, AMZS, received the EuroRAP best performer award during the Association’s General Assembly.

The accolade was given in recognition of the continued efforts and success of the club and technical partner the Traffic Technical Institute of the University of Ljubljana in raising awareness of the need for safer roads alongside safer vehicles and safer drivers.

The EuroRAP programme in Slovenia works in close partnership with a number of governmental and expert organisations including the Ministry of the Interior, Police, Ministry of Transport, Slovenian Roads Agency and DARS (the national motorway company).

The first Risk Mapping results published in November 2009 received widespread support and led to the inclusion of EuroRAP in the Road Safety Operational Plan for 2010-11, part of Slovenia’s current Road Safety Programme. The programme partners in Slovenia are currently embarking on a road inspection programme across the network.
