1.2". Normal ride attitude" is the vehicle attitude in running order, positioned on the ground with the tyres inflated to the recommended pressures and the front wheels in the straight-ahead position, with maximum capacity of all fluids necessary for operation of the vehicle, with all standard equipment as provided by the vehicle manufacturer, with a 75 kg mass placed on the driver's seat and a 75 kg mass placed on the front passenger's seat and with the suspension set for a driving speed of 40 km/h or 35 km/h in normal running conditions specified by the ...[+++] manufacturer (especially for vehicles with an active suspension or a device for automatic levelling).

Temporary reduction measures: Local speed limits (up to -14 % NOx; -1 % VOC) and local driving bans including non-low emission diesel cars (up to -25 % NOx; up to -28 % VOC) exert only minor effects on peak ozone concentrations, at maximum -4 % for speed limits and -7 % for traffic bans.

With the clear objective of obtaining withdrawal of the US measures, the Commission's proposal provides for a gradual imposition of countermeasures as from 1 March 2004 at the level of 5%, followed by automatic, monthly increases of 1% up to a ceiling of 17% to be reached in March 2005.

The Three are essentially recommending a gradual phasing-out of the quota system in a move towards a totally unrestricted market, in the following stages : - quotas established by the Commission for the first quarter of 1988 (output in which is virtually all sold already) which would then serve a definitive basis of reference, - seasonally adjusted quotas increased by 2.5 % every quarter from the second quarter of 1988, up to 10 % at the beginning of the first quarter of 1989, - permanent abolition of the quota system as from 1 April 1989. The report suggests an alternative : if before 15 March 1988, the producers give firm guarantees to the Commission that they will reduce capacities by at least 75 % of the surplus identified by the Commis ...[+++]sion, i.e. at least three quarters of some 20 million tonnes for the three categories in question (hot-rolled coils, heavy sheet and heavy sections), the Commission could suspend the progressive quartely quota incrases and return to a system of quotas adjusted to market possibilities which would apply until 31 December 1990 at the latest.
