"The active and passive safety of motorists has improved significantly over recent decades, with safety belts, airbags, energy-absorbing crumple zones, sensors, lights, and other such features. Everything that can be done to safeguard human life should be done. This report by Mr Koch and Ms Sehnalová concerns the regulation introducing the eCall service. The aim of this measure is to save human lives, and it makes installing an alert system in motor vehicles obligatory. In the event of an accident, and similar to what already happens in certain high-end vehicles, this system triggers an emergency call and transmits the coordinates of the damaged vehicle’s location. How many people might survive if they were attended to at the time of the accident? How many people have been trapped, often in inhospitable and/or undisclosed places, bleeding and unable to ask for help? I voted for this report, as I believe that eCall will be of benefit, and will allow many lives and many resources to be saved from 2015. As such, it should be seen as a public service accessible to all."@en1
