Let's take 5150 - 5250 MHz as an example. It is ok to use it in in the
Cars if EIRP is limited to 25mW,
These regulations applies to EU countries as well as all the countries
which recognize EU rules.
Currently the only solution is to update db.txt to reflect these
regulations by OEM/Tier 1. There is no
generic solution that would cover various applications (e.g. in
automotive) where Linux kernel is used.
