8. GRSG adopted amendments to document ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2020/123, proposal for a new UN Regulation on Event Data Recorder, based on informal documents GRSG-120-02 and GRSG-120-05 and requested the secretariat to submit it as official document to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration and vote at their March 2021 sessions.

9.

4. (c) | Deliverables of the Informal Working Group on Event Data Recorder / Data Storage Systems for Automated Driving

13. The expert from the USA, Co-Chair of the IWG on Event Data Recorder (EDR) / Data Storage Systems for Automated Driving (DSSAD), informed GRVA on the outcome of the work of the group (GRVA-07-58), currently primarily focusing on EDR activities. She mentioned that a significant list of data elements was considered but that those concerning Vulnerable Road Users would be considered in a second step of activities.
