Draft of the amendment to introduce the Flex PLI lower legform impactor and related test procedures into the GTR on pedestrian safety protection, including the new bumper test area specifications.

Proposal to amend the bumper test area procedures under the pedestrian safety GTR.
This proposal includes the “bumper beam measurement” in the procedure.

Proposal to develop a test procedure for the assessment of exterior (outer surface of the vehicle) deployable systems to protect pedestrians or other vulnerable road users during an accident.

Phase 2 proposes to amend the UN Global Technical Regulation No. 9 on pedestrian safety by introducing the flexible pedestrian legform impactor (FlexPLI) as a single harmonized test tool in order to enhance the level of protection for pedestrian lower legs. NHTSA has expressed concern that the injury assessment reference values (IARVs) for this GTR may not meet the needs for injury mitigation in the U.S. In order to enable the proposed Phase 2 amendment to move forward with US support, the US proposes additions to the GTR preamble to make clear its position and intentions regarding assessment of the IARV and to allow the brackets to be removed from the IARV in the draft amendment.

Announcement of task force establishment, organization, and meeting plans towards developing a proposal for the assessment and approval of deployable exterior pedestrian safety systems (e.g., active bonnet).

Proposal to clarify provisions of the headform tests of UN GTR No. 9.
