Europe adopts a car accident developer rescue system

The European Commission announced that its countries have started to adopt the "emergency calls" system to be applied to modern cars since March 31.

The Association of Automobile Manufacturers of the European Union (EU) said that automobile manufacturers in Europe had already started to install the "ecall" system in vehicles that made from late March, and this achievement was achieved thanks to the considerable cooperation and investment in which representatives of the automobile industry participated.

Thanks to the special techniques installed in the car, the "ecall" system can communicate with emergency and ambulance service and send the coordinates of the vehicle via satellite in case of an accident.

Europe believes that this step will significantly reduce the impact of catastrophic accidents on people, especially as figures indicate that more than 2,500 people were killed in 2016 and about 135,000 injured in traffic accidents in various countries of the European Union.
