According to the European Traffic Police this could reduce road deaths by 20%. As the European Commission continues work on the development of the next generation of vehicle safety standards, this new film made for the European Transport Safety Council, presents the case for making overridable Intelligent Speed Assistance a standard feature on all new vehicles in Europe. As the hardware becomes more standardised the cost for these units is becoming cheaper and cheaper. Considering the costs of speed enforcement and the consequential cost of speeding there’s a strong case for mandating the introduction of this technology.
