81. The expert from ISO introduced GRVA-15-16 (and addenda) regarding automated driving systems and traffic regulations. He asked how an automated vehicle should know traffic rules at all times, at a particular location on the road, on a particular day, at a specific time and for a specific vehicle category. He stated that several road administrations had reached the conclusion that in order to make this possible, the traffic regulations must be made electronically available. He introduced the Management of Electronic Traffic Regulations (METR) concept.

82. GRVA inquired if this matter would be presented to WP.1 too.

83. The expert from Norway asked if electronic traffic regulation was a prerequisite for the industry to develop ADS.

84. The expert from OICA stated the importance of traffic rules for developers and vehicle manufacturers, as they had to be embedded in algorithms. He estimated that the deployment of ADS and the central availability of traffic rules would happen progressively.

85. The expert from the Netherlands noted that having a set of rules stored in a central place would certainly help the certification process but that it was not a pre-requisite for ADS deployment.

86. The expert from ITU supported the statement by OICA.
