Proposal for Class IX devices to enable approval of front and lateral close-proximity passenger-side vision devices based upon current standards in Japan. The purpose is to address VRU safety risks on narrow roads and other conditions where cyclists and pedestrians must share the lane with vehicles. Please note that discussion of this proposal was deferred to a future meeting.
