Recital 14
(14) Electronic Stability Control Systems, Advanced Emergency Braking Systems and Lane Departure Warning Systems have a high potential to produce considerable casualty reductions. Therefore requirements for such systems should be established for those vehicle categories in which their application is appropriate and for which it is demonstrated that they will improve the overall level of safety. Sufficient lead time until implementation should be provided to allow for implementation measures to be completed and subsequently for development and in- vehicle application of these complex technologies.
