Document Title Proposal for Supplement 19 to the 01 series of Regulation No. 53
Reference Number GRE/2016/15
Date
19 Jan 2016
Summary Proposal to remove restrictions that impede the use of bend lighting on motorcycles. UN R53 currently prohibits the use of additional lighting units when the driving beam is in use. This requirement unnecessarily restricts the use of ALU to improve road illumination at night when the motorcycle is banking through a turn.

37. The expert from GTB proposed to allow the activation of additional lighting units, in conjunction with the driving beam, to improve illumination when the motorcycle is banking (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/2016/15). GRE adopted the proposal and decided to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration and vote at their November 2016 sessions as draft Supplement 19 to the 01 series of amendments and draft Supplement 1 to the 02 series of amendments to Regulation No. 53.
