Brussels – On May 17th the European Commission published a large package of transport Policy proposals, the 3. Mobility Package, including some very significant measures to reduce the dangers on EU roads. The Revision of the GSR ( General Safety Regulation) includes mandatory installation of new driver assistance technologies. FEVR supports all of these measures and especially the ISA ( Intelligent Speed Assistance and AEB ( Automated Emergency Breaking) for all new cars including vans and lorries. But also the EDR ( Event Data Recorder) for all vehicles.
Now all stakeholders need to approach their national political key players that this Commission proposal is supported by the Parliament and the Council.
