Proposal to amend the classification criteria of L1-category vehicles (e.g., mopeds) under R.E.3 in line with technical progress.
17. The expert from EC introduced additional amendments on powered cycles to Regulation No. 63 (GRB-64-11) and, to this end, also proposed to include new subcategories L1-A and L1-B in the Consolidated Resolution on the Construction of Vehicles (R.E.3) (GRB-64-18). The experts from Germany, Japan, Italy, Netherlands and IMMA requested more time to study the proposals and pointed out that R.E.3 would need first to be amended with the new definitions of powered cycles. GRB agreed to come back to this subject at the next session.
27. GRB noted that the draft proposal by the expert from the European Commission (GRB-64-18) was addressed under agenda item 8 (para. 17 above).
28. The expert from OICA indicated the need to include new definitions on special vehicles into the Consolidated Resolution on the Construction of Vehicles (R.E.3). He added that OICA would submit proposals to the GRSG session in October 2016.
