Speed ​​brakes in all new cars: ISA driving assistant mandatory from summer
2/7/2024
Speed ​​assistant ISA will be mandatory in July: How does the system work?
The system will be mandatory in all new cars in the European Union (EU) from July 7, 2024.
It warns the driver of excessive speed and is intended to ensure greater safety on the road.
Unlike some driving aids, the ISA cannot be switched off permanently.
The assistant has been mandatory for newer vehicle types since July 2022.
From July, a black box will also be mandatory in all new cars.
If the car detects a speed limit, the ISA adjusts the speed.

Thanks to traffic sign recognition via camera or GPS positioning (including comparison with current maps), the ISA always knows what speed is currently permitted.
Together with the cruise control and speed limiter, the driving assistant can adjust the speed.
Speed ​​assistant reduces speed: driver can overrule it
If the vehicle is too fast, ISA reduces engine power and gently brakes it until the permitted speed is reached.
If you still want to drive faster, you can do so by stepping on the gas or deactivating the system in the settings before each trip.

Sounds like a nightmare
Wow, the complete and utter destruction of the EU sportscar market in sight, crazy. Guess how long you'll be able to deactivate it? Sports car drivers better plan their next purchase carefully.
