EU: New templates for the vehicle type approval

 

The EU Commission has launched a public consultation regarding document templates for the provision of information for the EU vehicle type approval.

The templates refer to the following aspects:

• intelligent speed assistance system
• driver drowsiness and attention warning system
• alcohol interlock installation facilitation
• event data recorder
• advanced driver distraction warning system.

Standard templates will help to ensure that EU vehicle approval legislation is implemented consistently across EU countries.
