Proposal to delete references to obsolete Regulations Nos. 1, 8, 20, 56, 57, 72, 76 and 82.

Text prepared by Italy to delete all obsolete references in Regulations Nos. 53 and 74 in order to avoid confusion and possible incorrect application of the requirements containing these references. The deletions cover references to Regulations Nos. 1, 8, 20, 56, 57, 72, 76 and 82. These regulations have all been “frozen” (i.e., they do not apply to new type approvals) and their functions have been taken over by Regulations Nos. 112 and 113.

Text submitted by the International Motorcycle Manufacturers Association (IMMA) to allow for the use of different brake lamp activation methods for Powered Two Wheelers (PTWs). This amendment also introduces the concept of a high-mounted stop lamp to PTWs to improve the conspicuity of the vehicles during stopping.
