Amendments to the proposals to harmonize the provisions of UN Rules Nos. 1 and 2 with those of the latest UN Regulations annexed to the 1958 Agreement and EU Directives.

Draft proposal transposing the provisions of the pole side-impact protection Global Technical Regulation into a UN Regulation as approved by the Working Party on Passive Safety (document GRSP/2014/9, as amended by Annex VII to the report of the 55th GRSP session). This proposal is submitted with a request for guidance on the use of references to an ISO Standard (ISO 15830:2013) instead of preparing an Addendum to the Mutual Resolution No. 1 (M.R.1.) for the WorldSID 50th male specifications.

Proposal for an 01 series of amendments to the proposed new UN Regulation on pole side-impact protection (transposing GTR No. 14). This proposal would permit contracting parties to to require a vehicle-to-pole impact speed of 32 ± 1 km/h regardless of the “vehicle width” and is based upon document GRSP/2014/12 and amends the draft PSI regulation as proposed in document WP.29/163/14. The Working Party on Passive Safety approved this proposal provided that Australia would seek guidance on its transitional provisions (since this amendment would, in principle, be adopted at the same time as the original PSI regulation at the November 2014 WP.29 session). This draft incorporates comments from Germany, Japan, and OICA received after the GRSP 55th session.

Explanatory document on the deliberations and outstanding issues concerning the draft UN Regulation and its proposed 01 series of amendments. These issues concern the references to an ISO standard and transitional provisions for the amendment.
