The event organizer Carhs, which is represented in Brazil by FLV, came to the show with a novelty. It is a search tool specific for any article, document or standard related to automotive safety in the site safetywissen.com. Just digit this address in your browser and you’ll be driven to a site, which is specific for vehicle safety.
“It is much better and more efficient than to use Google, when the search is related to automotive safety”, said Rainer Hoffman, Carhs CEO. “The search only brings related subjects, as well all documents in the most updated versions. Old documents versions are also shown. It is a real useful tool to engineers and technicians and it is available free on the internet”, complements Rainer.
