Excerpts from session reports related to this document
GRSG | Session 116 | 8-12 Apr 2019

28. The expert from EC, Chair of IWG on VRU-Proxi, reported on the group’s decision to withdraw ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2019/10 on a new 05 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 46 and to submit instead a new draft UN Regulation on devices for reversing motion and driver’s awareness of vulnerable road users behind the vehicle (GRSG-116-36). He added that the new UN Regulation would address a broader scope, i.e. direct and indirect vision devices, and other detection devices. He sought the advice of GRSG on this new IWG approach. GRSG noted the requests by Italy and Sweden to apply these devices also on incomplete vehicles and, if possible, to already include it into the International Whole Vehicle Type Approval (IWVTA) scheme. GRSG endorsed the new IWG approach.

29. The Chair of VRU-Proxi announced that IWG would further review the terms of reference to extend the mandate for developing reversing safety by one additional year and to circulate, if possible, the new draft UN Regulation as an official document, for consideration by GRSG at its next session.

30. GRSG welcomed the good work progress and noted that the next meeting of IWG on VRU-Proxi was scheduled to be held in Berlin (Germany) on 17–19 June 2019.
