| − | A '''motor vehicle''', also known as '''motorized vehicle''' or '''automotive vehicle''', is a self-propelled land [[vehicle]], commonly [[wheel]]ed, that does not operate on [[Track (rail transport)|rail]]s (such as [[train]]s or [[tram]]s) and is used for the transportation of people or [[cargo]].

| − | ==Mandatory Speed Limiters And Data Recorders==
| |
| − | By [[2024]], new cars in the [[European Union]] will have installed mandatory equipment designed to [[monitor driving data]] and limit speed. New cars will have to come equipped with an Event Data Recorder (EDR) as standard,using the same technology as the [[black boxes]] found in [[aircraft]] (presumably minus the voice recording feature). It keeps track of driving data such as speed, location, and even the amount of brake force applied. Officially, this data is recorded only in the event of an [[accident]]. Furthermore, the data recorded will remain [[anonymous]], and will only be used to improve infrastructure and the vehicles themselves.<ref name=ride>https://www.rideapart.com/news/598091/eu-mandatory-data-recorder-speed-assist-2024/</ref>

| − | All cars will also have to be fitted with ISA, or Intelligent Speed Assist. Similar to how traditional adaptive cruise control works, the ISA system knows the speed limit of certain areas, and will give an audible and visual alert to the driver warning them that they are exceeding the speed limit. The ISA can be disabled, but is designed to automatically reactivate on every startup.<ref name=ride/>
