Geneva
Agenda Item 13. (c)
Any other business

67. The expert from OICA introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2015/44 proposing to extend the possibility of actuating the service braking system as described in Regulation No. 89 to vehicles of categories M2 and N2 below 5t. Some experts expressed concerns related to the risk of “hot brakes” phenomena when the (adjustable) speed limitation device would function down hills. The expert from OICA agreed to provide more information about the proposal to be presented at the February 2016 session of GRRF. GRRF agreed to resume consideration on this item at its February 2016 session and requested the secretariat to dedicate an agenda item to Regulation No. 89.

68. The expert from IMMA introduced GRRF-80-33 proposing to allow the optional fitment of Emergency Stopping Signals for motorcycles. GRRF welcomed the idea and agreed to resume consideration of this proposal at its February 2016 session.
