45、try, for instance, 1 to explain via cellphone that you are upside down in a ditch when you cannot speak the local language can fatally delay the arrival of the emergency services.But an answer may be at hand. Researchers funded by the European Commission are beginning tests of a system called E-merg

46、e that 2 senses when a car has crashed and sends a text message telling emergency services in the local language that the accident has taken place.The system was 3 by ERTICO, a transport research organization based in Brussels, Belgium. Cars are fitted with a cellphone-sized device attached 4 the un

47、derside of the dashboard which is activated by the same sensor that triggers the airbag in a crash. The device 5 a cellphone circuit, a GPS positioning unit, and a microphone and loudspeaker.It registers the severity of the crash by 6 the deceleration data from the airbags sensor. Using GPS informat

48、ion, it works out which country the car is in, and from this it determines 7 which language to compose an alert message detailing precise location of the accident.The device then automatically makes a call to the local emergency services 8 . If the cars occupants are conscious, they can communicate

49、with the operator 9 the speaker and microphone.E-merge also transmits the vehicles make, model, color and license number, and its heading when it crashed, which in turn indicates on which side of a multi-lane highway it ended up.This 10 the emergency services find the vehicle as soon as they arrive

50、on the scene, “We can waste a large 11 time searching for an incident,” says Jim Hammond, a (an) 12 in vehicle technology at the Association of Chief Police Officers in the UK. Tests will begin soon with police car fleets in the UK. Trials have already started in Germany, Sweden, Spain, the Netherla

51、nds and Italy.In-car systems that summon the emergency services after a crash have 13 been fitted in some premium cars. ERTICO says that 14 EU states are willing to fund the necessary infrastructure, E-merge could be working by 2008.A study by French car maker Renault concluded that the system could

52、 save up to 6000 fo the 40,000 lives lost each year on Europes roads, and prevent a similar number of serious injuries.The Renault study estimates that fitting E-merge to every car in Europe would eventually save around 150 billion per 15 in terms of reduced costs to health services and insurance co
