Proposal for a regulation
Recital 7

(7) Intelligent transport systems (ITS) can help to meet the challenges faced by the European transport policy, such as increasing road transport volumes and congestion or rising energy consumption. Standardised interfaces should therefore be provided in recording equipment in order to ensure interoperability with ITS applications. , while ensuring at the same time that the essential functions of the tachograph are safeguarded and the data protection is guaranteed. In order for the full potential of ITS based applications and of the data processed and stored by the tachograph to be realised, any data that can be transmitted out of the tachograph, whether wirelessly or electronically, whether forming part of a legal requirement or not , should be in the form of publicly available protocols.
