Identifies challenges with headlamp aiming across approval and inspection processes. Issues include determining vehicle actual load and cut-off line definition for up-down aiming, defining vehicle references and kink point location for left-right aiming, and separating aiming control from beam pattern assessment. Inspection data show rejection rates of 4.8 per cent for light duty vehicles and 2.8 per cent for heavy duty vehicles in France, with front fog lamp misalignment at 46 per cent. The document recommends reviewing approval criteria for passing-beam orientation and defining inspection procedures, equipment, and multibeam headlamp considerations.
