(central) vehicle registers and to EUCARIS technology ( European Car and Driving License Information system ). This makes additional technical data on the crashed vehicle available, so that the operations officer is immediately informed, for example, what type of vehicle, category and other technical data (dimensions, weights, etc.) it is and it does not matter where the vehicle originates. The available information is then used for optimization, higher efficiency of intervention units (technical equipment, its quantity, specifics, etc.), so the solution of mass, chain accidents, accidents at night, when there are no witnesses who would help to call for help hard injured or stressed participants in traffic accidents, etc., is automated, ie the vehicle can “help” to call for adequate rescue when the airbags are activated or after pressing the vehicle’s emergency button. Information and communication technologies will also help to eliminate language barriers, where many people on the roads have died in the past simply because they have not been able to say their location (Dirnbach et all, 2020). One of the decisive factors for the technological solution of the entire eCall project, apart from the technologies of telecommunication and data transmission, special SW, is the vehicle identification according to the VIN ( Vehicle Identification Number ). From the VIN identifier it is possible to find out the basic type identification data of the vehicle (make, brand, basic model, type of engine and its volume, power, body shape, year of manufacture, production plant, etc.) (Ahmed, 2018), (Kolitschova et all, 2018).
