"The deployment of the eCall service, based on the 112 emergency number, should ensure the automatic notification of the emergency services in the event of a serious accident. As such, it will make a key contribution to reducing the number of fatalities on European roads, as well as mitigating the consequences of injuries due to faster, qualified and properly equipped assistance. This pan-European emergency call service from vehicles should operate in all Member States and European countries associated with this initiative, and should be available in any vehicle, irrespective of make, country or actual location of the vehicle. Initially, this service was expected to be completely operational by 2009. Unfortunately, progress has been too slow, and the roll-out of the pan-European eCall service has been further delayed. It is therefore imperative to ensure that this system, which is considered one of the most efficient yet low-cost as regards road safety, can be deployed in a timely and streamlined manner across Europe, as is indeed desired by 80% of citizens surveyed. I support this initiative, which enables the establishment of a regulatory framework for rolling out this service, and which will speed up the process and make the installation of eCall devices obligatory in all new type-approved vehicles in Europe."@en1
