That's what I've been told, and that's what the manufacturers tell us too.
But then, it must have been accepted by some EC test somewhere to get type
approval. Without that, they can't use the EC stamp of approval.
I've not had any problems with the police in England, and they're
notoriously picky (stopping you for numberplate screws in the wrong place is
one example!)
