The framework directive 92/61/EEC and the series of separate directives subsequently enacted there-under, establishes the various construction, design and performance requirements which need to be fulfilled before new; two-or three-wheeled motor vehicles can be type-approved. Type-approval constitutes a fundamental pre- requisite of vehicle sale, registration or it's entry into service. The type-approval requirements relating to anti-tampering measures are laid down in Chapter 7 of Directive 97/24/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 June 1997 on certain components and characteristics of two- or three-wheel motor vehicles. Furthermore Article 2 of Directive 97/24/EC stipulates that the Commission shall carry out a detailed study in order to ascertain whether or not the anti-tampering measures in force can be considered appropriate, inadequate or too extreme in the light of intended aims. The Commission of the EU wishes to ensure that the current legislation in relation to anti- tampering measures, responds effectively to the requirements of the interested parties. The Commission considers that interested parties can be presumed to include: • vehicle and component manufacturers (including their representative organisations); • national type-approval authorities that certify the acceptability of products before they are sold on the open market and officially registered; • national transport/highway authorities responsible for vehicle inspection and thereby ensuring proper compliance with in-use conformity rules; • vehicle purchasers who require the product to fulfil their legitimate expectations in terms of quality, performance and safety; • other road users who expect that products used on the road respond properly to safety and environmental requirements; • the general public and organisations representing the public interests of environmental protection and road safety. 1_Background_and_scope_of_work.doc page 5 of 81 Motor Vehicle System Project Anti Tampering Devices and Traffic Routing Technique Test Laboratory Motor Vehicle Engineering Background and scope of work Commission services wish to examine the relevance and effectiveness of the separate directives presently regulating the design, performance, construction and fitting of anti- tampering measures. This examination is required in order to assess the precise scope and natures of on-going technological advance, and to ensure that any future regulatory changes take due account of the paramount need for safety for vehicle occupants and other road users. This results in the range of the project, focusing generally on three areas: • Review of the role and function of anti-tampering devices on two- or three-wheeled motor vehicles • The effective contribution made by anti-tampering measures in terms of speed, noise and gaseous emissions reductions since the multi-directive 97/24/EC came into force • Recommendations concerning the scope, extent and content of possible amendments to Directive 97/24/EC The existing type approval directive 92/61/EEC will be cancelled on November 9th, 2003 and replaced by the directive 2002/24/EC of the European parliament and the council, dated March 18th, 2002.
