       When investigators try to discover what caused an airliner to crash, the first thing they hope to find are the flight data recorders, popularly known as “black boxes”. These devices, usually painted bright orange, record how the aircraft was flying and the last 30 minutes or so of conversation in the cockpit. The information extracted from them has helped to determine the cause of air crashes and to improve aviation safety. Similar recording systems are fitted to some trains, ships and lorries. Now a bill in America’s Congress seeks to make it compulsory for data recorders to be fitted to all cars by 2015.
       The idea is that data captured by the recorders would give investigators and road-safety officials a better understanding of how certain crashes come about.

  • Wrong- subtle difference in shades of meaning. The OP stated that the congress is looking to have their bill, which by deafult defeats the purpose of the assertion that black boxes implementation will be compulsory by 2015.

    errado- texto diz que eles querem que seja obrigatorio, o que é diferente de afirmar que sera obrigatorio.

  • "to be fitted to all cars by 2015."

  • O sentido de bill é o de PROJETO DE LEI, então ainda não é lei. Portanto, o Congresso ainda não vai, só irá caso esse PROJETO de  lei seja aprovado.

    BILL: A formal statement of a PLANNED new law that is discussed by a government or legislature before being voted on. (Cambridge Dictionary)
