Proposal to introduce provisions for the approval of Remote Control Manoeuvring (RCM) systems.

Proposal to

1. correct numbering of paragraph 2.3.4.18.
2. limit the initial scope to M₁ and N₁ vehicles
3. further modify the numbering to clarify that remote-controlled maneuvering (RCM) is not a form of ACSF
4. clarify that all RCM are subject to the requirements of the Electronics Annex (Annex 6 to UN R79).

Proposal to ensure that the safety approach for complex electronics of remote controlled maneuvering addresses malfunctions, non-fault errors, and misuse.

Proposal to clarify requirements of the optical signal for a CSF intervention to ensure sufficient flashing tell-tale visibility for the driver, to specify the duration of such ACSF signals, to ensure a safe hierarchy of signals (e.g., ESF over CSF) by priority, to clarify that deactivation when departing an ODD means the “off mode”, and to add a cross-reference pointing to paragraphs that define cases of manual and automatic deactivation.
