| Summary | Proposal to introduce provisions for the approval of Remote Control Manoeuvring (RCM) systems, defined as driver-actuated systems on off-road vehicles used for navigating exceptionally difficult terrain. This proposal seeks to permit remote manoeuvring capability provided that the vehicle is designed to operate off-road and the off-road location is confirmed throughout the whole period that the function is in use. | ||||||||

45. The expert from UK introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2018/10, proposing to include provisions applicable for Remote Control Manoeuvring (RCM) in UN Regulation No. 79. GRRF welcomed the proposal, noting that some vehicles were already delivered with this feature. GRRF agreed to insert provisions on RCM in UN Regulation No. 79. The proposal received a number of comments from Contracting Parties and from OICA, as reflected in GRRF-86-15. 46. The expert from UK volunteered to submit a revised proposal for consideration at the September 2018 session of GRRF and invited interested experts to contribute to this work stream. |

Germany: what is off-road? Specify that additional requirements to current ACSF. Excluded remote handling controls from RCP, so raises issue. France: d'accord avec Allemagne--c'est quoi exactement hors route? UK: definitely not on any public roads, system could be fitted to on-road capable vehicles, but system restricted to off-road. Agree to clarify that ACSF-A system only. OICA: concern about GPS coverage and feasibility of having two independent means to verify position. Obstacle detection with auto stop technically problematic when vehicle purpose to penetrate through brush, etc. As explained in OICA proposal, also does not address many other applications for RCM, including outside ACSF (have existed since well before ACSF discussions). Need to further discuss. Looks like irreconcilable difference between CP and OICA views.
