Intelligent speed assistance (ISA) set to become mandatory across Europe
With the General Vehicle Safety Regulation (EU) 2019/2144, the Commission has taken unprecedented action to help the transport sector and public authorities prepare for the mobility of tomorrow. The objective is to protect Europeans against traffic accidents, poor air quality and climate change, empower them with new mobility solutions that match their changing needs, and defend the competitiveness of European industry.
As of 23 June, the delegated act “Technical requirements and test procedure for approval of intelligent speed assistance (ISA)” has been adopted. The act will now be sent to the European Parliament and Council for two-month scrutiny.
From July 2022, Intelligent speed assistance (ISA) will be mandatory for new models/types of vehicles introduced on the market. The ISA will become mandatory for all new cars that will be sold from July 2024 (therefore it will not concern the vehicle fleet already registered and in circulation before that date).
Soon to come:
Manual inactivation of the system costs 100 carbon credits.

"Building on traffic sign recognition technology, ISA informs drivers of the current speed limit and, when needed, acts as a speed limiter - automatically reducing a vehicle's speed by limiting engine power."
"The system can be overridden, or temporarily switched off."
Will it be like that stupid start/stop button that turns the engine off at traffic lights? Bright minds will be at work figuring out how best to short circuit the best laid dumb plans of bureaucracy.
