Ljubljana, 25. junij 2008 - Evropska komisija bo v šestih državah članicah (Belgiji, Franciji, Nemčiji, Poljski, Španiji in Sloveniji) poizvedovala, ali se upoševa pravica potrošnikov iz smernice 1999/94/EC, ki pravi, da morajo biti podatki o rabi goriva in CO2 emisijah vozil v tiskanih oglasih »lahko berljivi in nič manj opazni kot osnovni del informacije, ki jo [oglas] predstavlja«. Danes so okoljske nevladne organizacije iz teh šestih držav poslale uradno pritožbo na Evropsko komisijo.
