Exactly. Some areas of our ADR's are virtually word for word from the EEC(Euro) regulations. Here is an example:
Euro Spec - 70/387/EEC - Doors of motor vehicles:
3.2 Hinges 3.2.1 Each hinge system shall be capable of supporting the door and withstanding a longitudinal load of 1134 kp (1111 daN) and a transverse load of 907 kp (889 daN) in both directions.
Our ADR Text:
The set of retention components for each door shall be capable of supporting the door and withstanding a longitudinal load of 1,111 daN and a transverse load of 889 daN, in both directions.
