Abstract

As it is widely known, along with the manufacturer and the consumer, the authorities that implement the state policy on ensuring the safety of products put into circulation in the country and create appropriate regulatory documents within their competence also participate in the formation of requirements for the design of cars. Mandatory requirements can be national (for one country only) or regional (for several countries). In addition, a country or a group of countries may, within the framework of an international agreement, join international requirements. Regulation of vehicles and its additional equipment at the legislative level stands as a guarantee from the state to the citizens that only safe products get to the country's market. The amount of additional equipment installed on the vehicles is constantly increasing and there are no appropriate regulatory documents for the major part of this equipment; this represents the relevancy of the selected topic.
