Proposal to require red retro-reflectors to identify the rear sides of a vehicle (presently not required for vehicles less than six meters in length).

Updated proposal, superseding document GRE/2019/11, to:

1. update requirements for headlamps and daytime running lamps related to headlamp switching. In particular, the proposed 07 series of amendments aims to clarify electrical connection requirements, conditions for manual switching OFF of headlamps, and new definitions for switching ON/OFF and for activating/deactivating lamps;
2. introduce technical parameters for speed and vehicle distance, allowing reduced intensity at speeds lower than 20 km/h, in order to encourage reduced glaring effects from rear signaling lamps;
3. introduce references to the three new simplified lighting Regulations (Light-Signalling Devices (LSD), Road Illumination Devices (RID) and Retro-Reflective Devices (RRD)).

• Paragraph 5.26 contains the two proposed alternatives from France
• Paragraph 5.26.2. contains the proposals from Czech Republic and GTB
• Paragraph 6.2.7.5.1. contains 3 alternatives for subparagraph (d)
• Paragraph 6.19.7.6. (new) contains the proposal from OICA because of the replacement of “may” by “shall”
• Paragraph 12.6 contains the OICA proposed changes of the Transitional Provisions, linked to ESS introduction.

Supporting data justifying the headlamp aiming and cut-off points diagrammed in the proposal for a new series of amendments (GRE-81-13).

Proposal to clarify the requirements of paragraph 5.26. for the variable luminous intensity of four different light signaling functions: rear direction indicator lamps of category 2b, rear position lamps of category R2, stop lamps of category S2,and rear fog lamps of category F2. The intent is to ensure that all the lamps maintain their proportionate relationships throughout the transitions in luminosity.

vary all together proportionally.
