Draft report of the 12th session of the Task Force on Lamps Under Parked Conditions. Discussion of a proposal for modification of UN R48 covered additional colours for energy indicators, with concerns raised regarding blue indicators and police signals, the number of indicators permitted per connector, distinction between passenger cars and trucks/buses, and observation angles and intensities. Agreement was reached on the size of apparent surface for indicators. The group decided to continue discussion on lamp test mode at the next session and to send a status report, revised Terms of Reference, and an informal proposal to the 95th session of GRE.
Responses from the UN Office of Legal Affairs to questions posed by the International Whole Vehice Type Approval (IWVTA) informal group concerning the ramifications of possible amendments under discussion within the group.
