Commissioner Vivian Reding:“…we would like to take measures to ensure that the benefits of our technological research become more visible for the citizens” Deployment obstacles: • Difficult to explain - sell • Low public awareness • High price – high maintenance cost • Privacy concerns 3

  4. How do we explain eSafety today? • Adaptive Cruise Control • Lane Keeping Assist • Automated Parallel Parking • Low Speed Following • Electronic Stability Control Night vision Lane departure warning Forward Collision Warning Collision Mitigation Braking • eCall Blind spot monitoring • Adaptive head lights • Obstacle & collision warning • Extended information (Extended FCD) • RTTI (Real-time Traffic and Travel Information) • Dynamic traffic management • Local danger warning • Speed Alert 4

  13. Conclusion • Simple and credible messages are essential • Technical communication must be avoided • Media campaigns are effective but require constant news and are difficult to sustain for longer periods • Consumer tests gives a high penetration in the media but difficult if products show only small differences • Labelling needed to brand eSafety • Lives can be saved every day - if we progress 13
