eCall Driving Group

Emergency Call (eCall) is a priority both for the industry and the public sector. In cases where a vehicle is involved in an accident, an Emergency Call, or e-Call can be initiated automatically, and accurate vehicle location and additional safety-related information can be passed to the Public Service Answering Point. Such information cuts dramatically down the emergency response times, saving lives and reducing the consequences of serious injuries.
The eCall Driving Group is working on an integrated strategy for Pan-European emergency services. These services will build on the location-enhanced emergency services being implemented in the Member States on the basis of the recently adopted Recommendation on the implementation of E-112. Furthermore, these services will include provisions for more accurate location information and additional safety information.
