TEL AVIV, Israel, Nov. 11, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The Council of the European Union voted to adopt regulations proposed by the European Parliament in March to mandate the presence of advanced safety systems in automobiles by mid 2022.
Under the new rules, all motor vehicles (including trucks, buses, vans and sport utility vehicles) will have to be equipped with Driver monitoring systems (DMS) including, driver drowsiness and attention warning systems as well as advanced driver distraction warning systems.
"The adoption of the new EU regulations is a major step towards improving road safety and reducing fatalities," said David Tolub, CEO of Eyesight Technologies.
