World Forum for the Harmonization of Vehicle Regulations | Session 174 | 12-16 Mar 2018
Geneva
Agenda Item 4.7.
Consideration of draft amendments to existing UN Regulations submitted by GRRF

88. The World Forum considered the draft amendments under agenda items 4.7.1 to 4.7.8 and recommended their submission to AC.1 for voting, subject to the following corrections:

89. In ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2018/8, the title, for “Supplement 1 to the 01 series”, read “Supplement 17 to the 00 series”.

90. In ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2018/9, Annex 21, paragraph 2.1.4., second subparagraph, amend to read:

“Additionally, interventions by systems related to the vehicle stability function (including traction control, trailer stability assist, corner brake control, other similar functions that use throttle individual torque control to operate and share common components with vehicle stability function, and ESC or VSF intervention on the steering angle of one or more wheels for the purpose of vehicle stability) may also be indicated to the driver by this flashing optical warning signal.”

91. In ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2018/12, on page 4, for “Qp”, read “qp”.

92. In ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2018/35, paragraphs 2.1.4., amend to read:

12.2.2.As from 1 September 2019, Contracting Parties applying this UN Regulation shall not be obliged to accept UN type approvals to the preceding series (02) of amendments, first issued after 1 September 2019.
12.2.3.Until 1 September 2021, Contracting Parties applying this UN Regulation shall continue to accept UN type approvals to the preceding series (02) of amendments to the UN Regulation, first issued before 1 September 2019.
12.2.4.As from 1 September 2021, Contracting Parties applying this UN Regulation shall not be obliged to accept type approval issued to the preceding series of amendments to this UN Regulation.

93. WP.29 noted the concern raised by the representative of OICA on the selection of an early date of application for the transitional provisions in paragraphs 12.2.3. and 12.2.4., which could create serious development difficulties, due to the introduction of new requirements compared to the very recently adopted 02 series of amendments, while vehicles are currently under development for the latter.
