Currently, 79% of all realized in the EU cars do not possess with this function, and more than a half of manufacturers (66%) do not provide AEV even as an optional equipment on one of their models.

In addition to passengers’ security control strengthening, the monitoring after the cars’ ability to withstand hit from behind was also increased.
