Proposal to ensure that N3 category four-axle chassis, regardless of bodywork in second stage production (e.g., concrete mixer), will be included within the scope of the vehicle stability provisions.
81. The expert from France introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRVA/2022/14 as amended by GRVA-13-39, aimed to require the fitment of four axles commercial vehicles over 25 tons with vehicle stability function. The expert from OICA introduced GRVA-13-23 containing an alternative proposal addressing the concern raised by the expert from France and based on their statistical review of the configuration of four axle vehicles. He presented GRVA-13-20 containing elements justifying their alternative proposal.
82. GRVA agreed to keep GRVA-13-23 and GRVA-13-39 on the agenda for the session in September 2022.
78. The expert from France reported on recent crashes involving concrete mixer trucks, such vehicles being currently exempted from the electronic stability requirements. He presented GRVA-12-07, proposing to remove the exemption for concrete mixers trucks.
79. GRVA agreed to resume consideration of the French proposal and requested the secretariat to distribute GRVA-12-07 with an official symbol at the next GRVA session in May 2022.
