The agenda was agreed with no change.
The experts were reminded the list of documents:
- AEBS/LDWS-16-01 (Chair) Draft agenda
- AEBS/LDWS-16-02 (UK) proposal to address vehicles with rigid suspension in the Introduction of the AEBS regulation.
- AEBS/LDWS-16-03 (J) presentation about possible concerns with regard to moving target durability.
OICA requested the group to consider the following documents:
- GRRF/2011/39 about Preamble and scope
- GRRF-71-16 about the rigid suspension vehicles.
The Chair, as representative of the European Commission, drew the attention of the participants to
the informal document GRRF-71-26, as a reaction to the OICA document GRRF-71-16.
J announced a presentation about durability of the moving targets (document AEBS/LDWE-16-XXX)
The experts were then invited to present their contribution.
The UK presented document AEBS/LDWS-16-02 as a document to be considered together with the OICA document GRRF/2011/39, and aiming to permit the Contracting Parties who want to approve vehicles equipped with a rigid rear axle suspension to do so, without making this mandatory.
OICA presented firstly document GRRF-71-16, limited to transitional provisions and to be discussed under point 4.4., and then the document GRRF/2011/39 addressing the Preamble (Introduction). It was suggested to introduce these points during the agenda 4.3.1.(d)
The European Commission also introduced the informal document GRRF-71-23 for item 4.4.
