Translation of "Phare de danger automatique " (French → English) :

Your rapporteur also welcomes the proposal on the automatic headlight on (AHO) in order to improve the visibility of L-vehicles.

(34) Member States should take all appropriate measures to ensure that non-automatic weighing instruments may be placed on the market only if, when properly stored and used for their intended purpose, or under conditions of use which can be reasonably foreseen, they do not endanger the health and safety of persons.

To adequately test the automatic headlight control switching (e.g. high beam assist), the test should be conducted using an electronic control device to verify the correct functionality.

Three key functional safety requirements are proposed in order to tackle the bad road safety performance of L-category vehicles: mandatory anti-lock braking systems for medium and high performance motorcycles, powertrain tampering prevention and the automatic headlamp-on feature.

The Commission will: publish a study on the impact on the European economy of shortages of language skills in 2006; publish on the web an inventory of the language certification systems available in the European Union in 2006; launch a study on the potential for greater use of sub-titles in film and television programmes to promote language learning; publish the inter-institutional, multilingual database IATE (Inter-Agency Terminology Exchange) as a service to anyone needing validated terms from EU-related contexts; organise a conference on translator training in universities, in 2006; Launch under i2010 a flagship initiative on dig ...[+++]ital libraries making multimedia sources easier and more interesting to use, and building on Europe’s rich heritage combining multicultural and multilingual environments,[34] and Bring together and coordinate the work of European research teams in the fields of human language technologies, machine translation, and the creation of language resources such as dictionaries and thesauri, and set technical challenges specific to the European context (such as the focus on the quality of multilingual applications and machine translation systems).

This is comparable to the covenant with the car industry, which produces headlights that are activated automatically when the car is switched on, whereupon the driver needs to switch them off again in order to meet national statutory provisions or safety requirements.
