The way of improving the monitoring system observing possible changes introduced into the design of the vehicles is considered. The main drawbacks of the existing systems which were previously used and which are used at present are indicated, and a direction of improving the currently used algorithm is proposed. There has been worked out a new algorithm for the assessment of possible changes introduced in the design, which allows neutralizing the shortcomings of the existing procedures, thereby ensuring road safety.
