Abstract

The European Commission (EC) is trying to improve road safety and working conditions throughout Europe, and card technology is playing a role in achieving this. Current European Union (EU) regulations state that all newly registered commercial vehicles with a total weight in excess of 3.5 tonnes and buses with more than nine seats must now be equipped with a digital tachograph. This regulation – stipulated by the EC's Directorate General for Energy and Transport – is intended to increase safety and make it possible to monitor working conditions in every EU country. In the future, high-performance cards will reliably record vehicle speeds and the times drivers are behind the wheel or resting.
