This is news that makes you smile. While the standard GSR2 (General Safety Regulation) has not even entered into force yet, European Union is already looking to the future in terms of road safety. We remind you, Fr July 7, 2024all new cars sold in Europe must comply a strict set of active safety rules. New cars must, among other things, be equippedAIV (intelligent speed adaptation system that causes unwanted noise pollution every time the permitted limit is exceeded),fatigue alarmwith’emergency lane keeping assistance, emergency braking assistance or even installing a black box capable of collecting information during accidents. Do you think this is going too far? Get ready, outlines of the standard GSR3 are already forming little by little. Currently, everything is happening behind the scenes of the European Parliament. AND the first sounds of the corridors are instructive. According to our information collected by unnamed eyewitnesses on the scene, the future of road safety will be very restrictive. And for good reason, it probably just will it is forbidden to talk in the car! No, you are not dreaming…

Discussions behind the wheel lead to 3% of fatal accidents

The first drafts of the text speak for themselves: ” […] According to the latest experiments carried out by the European Commission specializing in road safety, it was shown that discussions in the car are the cause of 3% of fatal accidents on the roads. So, to achieve the ambitious goals set by the EU zero road deaths by 2050, in common interests to use fixed assets. If necessary, this includes a complete ban on talking while driving.” After infrared cameras installed in our future cars that must analyze driver behavior in real time (detection of drowsiness, too regular use of the central screen or phone, for example), time for the microphones! There is currently no indication of how the Commission will achieve its goals. How many microphones will be installed on our future cars? How will they be able to tell the difference between a discussion or just… music, for example? As for a possible system of sanctions, there is currently nothing to explain what will happen if thousands, if not millions, of motorists do not comply. It remains to be seen if all this information is confirmed… To be sure, we still advise you to check the publication date of this article.
