In Italy, the installation of algorithms that analyze driving style on cars is taking its first steps. It is an innovation brought by one of the country’s leading car-sharing companies.
The purpose at the moment is to improve the maintenance of its fleet of over 2000 cars.

A new DPIA would be necessary in that case to assess the rights at stake.
