Traduction de «european new car assessment program » (Anglais → Français) :

10. Establishment through FP7 of a comprehensive, technical and socio/economic assessment program, based on Field Operational Tests (FOT) to assess in real environments the impact of ICT-based Intelligent Car systems on driver behaviour and on driving dynamics.

19. Is worried about the safety of those vulnerable road users; including young people, for whom the death rate is particularly high; notes that the risk of death in motorcycle or moped travel is 17 times higher than in car travel and that walking or cycling is up to nine times riskier; stresses that safety needs to be significantly improved not only for car occupants but also for vulnerable road users, such as pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists; highlights the need to focus on road safety education, legislation and control measures on higher-risk groups through a more holistic approach; calls on the Commission to propose effective measures to ensure that all vulnerable road users benefit from maximum protection - such as hazard w ...[+++]arning lights for the safety of two-wheeled vehicles; maintains that all road users should be made aware of the risks and of ways to reduce them; welcomes the EU-funded New Programme for the Assessment of Child Seats (NPACS) that establishes harmonised test and rating protocols; calls on the Commission to investigate whether child safety could be given higher priority in the Community road safety policy, whether extra attention to pedestrian safety could be brought to bear in European New Car Assessment Programme (EuroNCAP) crash tests and in the introduction of the second phase of Directive 2003/102/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 November 2003 relating to the protection of pedestrians and other vulnerable road users before and in the event of a collision with a motor vehicle and amending Council Directive 70/156/EEC ;

35. Is aware of the fact that introducing many new technologies may prove to be costly and that new car buyers are not always able or willing to pay the full cost even though the socio-economic cost savings would be higher than the added cost to the vehicle; calls on the Commission to define, together with the Member States ( and at the same time safeguarding the functioning of the internal market) fiscal and other incentives to accelerate the introduction of effective solutions and enhance their introduction through a reformed and more exhaustive EuroNCAP (European New Car Assessment Programme);

The EEVC tests were adopted in 1993 and have been used since 1997 by the European New Car Assessment Programme Euro NCAP which publishes information on the safety of cars, receiving its funding mainly from the Commission.

2. Recalls the 24-year history of pedestrian-friendly car fronts to date, with EU and national funding of research in this field, the work of the European Enhanced Vehicle-Safety Committee (EEVC) and its different working groups, contradictory benefit studies by several national road safety institutes on one side and the European Association of Automotive Manufacturers (ACEA) on the other, debates on test methods, the presentation at a relatively early stage of cars which to a considerable extent already meet the EEVC criteria, the aborted attempts by the Commission to come forward with a legislative proposal and the subsequent promises in various communications to attempt again to propose a legislative act, and ...[+++]European New Car Assessment Programme (Euro-NCAP) tests in which most cars performed rather poorly;

further support for the European New Car Assessment Programme (EuroNCAP); calls on the Commission to request EuroNCAP to consider the possibility of combining standards for pedestrians and car-drivers to give car-buyers, who are both pedestrians and car-users, one overall performance standard; the current EuroNCAP should also be incorporated in a larger testing programme which would take account of further safety aspects, with regard in particular to the safety of vulnerable road users,
