71. The expert from OICA introduced GRVA-14-25, detailing an amendment proposal to the provisions on the activation of Automatically Commanded Steering Function of Category C to reduce the driver’s confusion.

72. The expert from Japan supported the proposal. The expert from the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland supported the intention of the proposal and suggested to review the text proposed.

73. The expert from Germany was not in favour of GRVA-14-25. He suggested to address this concern via a better human-machine interface requirement.

74. The expert from OICA presented GRVA-14-24/Rev.1, aimed at addressing the comment from the expert from Germany. The expert from Germany welcomed the modifications proposed but still had concerns with the wording of paragraph 5.6.4.5. because it would introduce a weak requirement, difficult to verify. GRVA agreed in principle with the aim of the proposal but required an improved wording for consideration at its January 2023 session.
