Abstract: A Carnot group $mathbbG$ admits Lusin approximation for horizontal curves if for any absolutely continuous horizontal curve $gamma$ in $mathbbG$ and $varepsilon>0$, there is a $C^1$ horizontal curve $Gamma$ such that $Gamma=gamma$ and $Gamm{a}^{\prime }=gamm{a}^{\prime }$ outside a set of measure at most $varepsilon$. We verify this property for free Carnot groups of step 2 and show that it is preserved by images of Lie group homomorphisms preserving the horizontal layer. Consequently, all step 2 Carnot groups admit Lusin approximation for horizontal curves.
