IPO The application relates to a road safety arrangement that selects vehicles by sensing pre-determined vehicle behavior and communicating to such vehicles the requirement to proceed to a vehicle occupant testing system. The invention was found to be a collocation of the selection (sensing/communication) system and the testing system. Applying the Windsurfing/Pozzoli test separately to these two concepts the claims were found to lack an inventive step. The application was remitted to the examiner on the condition that the applicant files new claims. If the applicant does not do so within 2 months from the date of this decision the application will be refused.
