The European Union wants to introduce a raft of compulsory safety features for cars.
A range of mandatory safety features for new vehicles, including technology that could limit speed, are set to be introduced in the European Union .
ISA systems can"limit engine power" to stop drivers from going above the speed limit. The ETSC says it recommends ISA technologies that can be temporarily overridden. This would mean that drivers could, in scenarios such as overtakes on lower-speed sections of road, override the system by putting their foot down on the accelerator.Other proposed safety features include advanced emergency braking, cameras that assist with reversing, and lane-keeping assistance.
A number of major car firms are looking to introduce increasingly sophisticated and connected safety features to their vehicles.
