Proposed continuation of the work related to modular vehicle combinations
Document GRRF-76-29
13 February 2014

Request from the chair of the former informal group on automated couplings between vehicles for a mandate to develop amendments to braking, steering, vehicle stability, couplings, and possibly other areas related to modular vehicle combinations either through a new working group or an existing one (e.g., the R55 informal group). The aim would be to enable type approval of components used in vehicle combinations.

8. The Chair of the informal working group on ACV introduced GRRF-76-29 proposing follow-up actions for the ACV informal working group, on road trains. GRRF noted that this matter would interest both braking experts and mechanical coupling experts. GRRF supported GRRF-76-29 and requested a proposal for a Terms of Reference update for the informal group, which the chair of the informal group volunteered to prepare.
