Counts here are a floor, never a total: they cover the 326 consultation files tracked so far (29,503 submissions, mostly 2025–26), so an organization's real filing history is larger, not smaller.

Who they are

Among the 1205 trade and business associations on this site, they rank #801 by legislative files engaged — a count of participation, not a measure of influence.

What they argued

Road vehicles: maximum weights and dimensionsfiled 18 Feb 2022source

Road transport in the EU is subject to agreed standards in terms of dimensions and weights. The current rules ensure inefficient transport and unfair competition. Absurd situations arise because the wording in the Directive leads to a strict interpretation of border crossing points. The current regime causes significant environmental damage and unnecessary congestion.
