Proposal to clarify that transparency requirements under UN R43 apply in both directions (exterior to interior and interior to exterior), addressing the growing use of privacy foils on windscreens and front side windows post-registration, which raises safety concerns regarding driver eye-contact, law enforcement visibility, and driving behaviour enforcement, consistent with the position expressed by GRSG at its 130th session.

He expressed the concern that the use of this type of windscreen entails safety issues. The expert from Germany remarked that national law in his country forbids this type of windscreen. The experts from Canada and Spain confirmed the same restrictions in their countries with exceptions if justified at the medical level in Spain. GRSG agreed to resume discussion on this subject at its October 2023 session if needed.
43. GRSG noted that the information had not been submitted for further consideration of the use of windscreen with coloured tint (GRSG-125-23).
