The 124th GRSG session is scheduled to be held in Geneva from 11 October (9.30 a.m. CET) to 14 October (12.30 p.m.) 2022. The deadline for the submission of official documents to the secretariat is 19 July 2022, twelve weeks prior to the session.

Agenda Item 10.
UN Regulation No. 125 (Forward field of vision of drivers)

28. The expert from the Netherlands, on behalf of IWG on Field of Vision Assistant (FVA) of Drivers, introduced the IWG status report (GRSG-124-08). He confirmed that the next phase of the work would plan a draft new UN Regulation on FVA for all vehicle categories and update UN Regulation No. 125 (separating out the FVA section). Moreover, he added that in a future third phase, vehicle category L would be included as well as a possible update of UN Regulation No. 22 (Safety helmets). Finally, he introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2022/27 and GRSG-124-09-Rev.1 amending it, aimed at clarifying the switch off provisions of an FVA system in case of a backing event. GRSG adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2022/27 as amended by annex V to the session report. The secretariat was requested to submit the proposal as draft Supplement 2 to the 02 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 125, for consideration and vote at the March 2023 sessions of WP.29 and AC.1.
