In what situation is the eCall system designed to be triggered manually?

The eCall system is designed to enhance road safety and emergency response in Germany. It automatically notifies emergency services in the event of a serious accident, but it can also be triggered manually by witnesses or passengers in critical situations.

The correct situations for manual activation include witnessing a serious accident and a passenger experiencing a medical emergency. Both scenarios are crucial because they ensure immediate assistance is provided, which can be vital in saving lives.

Choosing only one of these options or excluding either means missing the full scope of circumstances where prompt action is necessary, as per German traffic regulations. The aim of the eCall system is to minimize response times and provide critical support, which requires recognizing all relevant emergency situations.
