Abstract: Increasing the safety of road traffic participants is a key issue for experts in this field. One of the devices that can be installed on board vehicles, with a positive impact on the decrease of the intervention time in case of road accidents is the eCall based on 112. The present study takes into the preliminary results of the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) application to evaluate the intention of the potential consumers to purchase and use the eCall on the vehicles, and of an Economic Cost Benefit Analysis (CBA) which evaluate to what extent it is advisable to install an eCall after-market device on passenger vehicles driven on European roads. The paper demonstrates that a TAM-based model assessing drivers’ intention to purchase/use an eCall system has good predictive and explanatory capacity. The CBA shows that in a do something scenario the benefit/cost ratio is strongly influenced by the price level.
