EU laws in EU countries prohibit the registering of vehicles that don't meet certain guidelines that would protect pedestrians, yes?

Not exactly. As the article says, each country has it's own registration laws, and the guidelines from this NGO are usually not a part of the laws.

A country may still have it's own guidelines for the topic.

It's not EU law unless it's coming from the EU. If it comes from the member countries, it'd just be a national law.
