Agenda Item 6. (b)
UN Regulation No. 53 (Installation of Lighting and Light-Signalling Devices for L3 Vehicles)

29. The experts from Czechia and Germany proposed to improve road safety by limiting the headlamp classes and to ensure the compatibility with the electric propulsion systems. (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/2022/15). GRE generally supported this proposal, subject to correcting a reference in paragraph 11.12.6. GRE decided to postpone its submission to WP.29 and AC.1 in order to combine it with the amendment proposals being developed by IWG SLR into a new 04 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 53.

30. The expert from IMMA introduced a proposal that aimed to enable the use of Rear-End Collision Alert Signal (RECAS) on vehicles of category L3 (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/2022/23). GRE adopted the proposal and requested the secretariat to submit it for consideration and vote at the March 2023 sessions of WP.29 and AC.1 as a draft Supplement to the 01, 02 and 03 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 53.
