Brake assist systems have become mandatory for all newly launched car and light commercial vehicle types in the EU. The regulation will apply to all new vehicles from February 24, 2011 as part of a new EU regulation that aims to improve pedestrian safety.
According to EU studies, up to 1,100 fatal accidents involving pedestrians could be prevented in Europe each year if all cars were equipped with braking assistance systems.
The industry is already working to develop predictive systems that will be able to detect traffic ahead of the vehicle via additional radar sensors and, in some cases, video sensors. "In the future, emergency braking systems will be able to interpret the traffic situation and offer drivers intelligent braking support," stated Dr Werner Struth, president of Bosch's Chassis Systems Control division. "In the years to come, these systems will be featured in a growing number of vehicle models. In 2010, a Bosch system is set to go into series production for the first time at Audi.”
Braking assistance systems not only reduce the risk of injury for pedestrians, they also help prevent rear-end collisions. Research has shown that in rear-end collisions resulting in injury in Germany, a third of drivers did not hit the brakes at all before the collision, and half of them did not use the car's full braking capacity.
The EU directive to improve “protection of pedestrians and other vulnerable road users” will not only make brake assist systems mandatory, it also foresees stricter regulations with regard to additional bumpers and frontal protection systems. The aim is to reduce the risk of injury for accidents involving pedestrians and cyclists. Improving traffic safety is also the aim of another directive which has been in effect since August 2009. Step by step, it will make ESP systems mandatory for all vehicles by November 2014. Moreover, from November 2015 commercial vehicles will also have to be equipped with advanced emergency braking systems as well as lane departure warning systems.
