Proposal to clarify the type-approval process concerning the reciprocal recognition of approvals to UN R131 and UN R152 (i.e., the conditions under which Contracting Parties applying both regulations are required to accept approvals under either regulation as equally valid for vehicles of category M2 and for vehicles of category M3/N2 with a maximum weight below or equal to 8t and equipped with hydraulic braking).
93. The representative of Australia sought clarifications (WP.29-191-23) regarding the equivalence of requirements according to UN Regulation No. 152 (AEBS for light vehicles) and UN Regulation No. 131 (AEBS for heavy vehicles) for vehicles of category M3/N2 with a maximum weight below or equal to 8 tons, equipped with hydraulic braking, which can be approved under both UN Regulations.
94. WP.29 agreed to pass the request to the Working Party on Automated/Autonomous and Connected Vehicles, as the body in charge of these regulations.
