Document Title OICA proposal for amendments to the 04 , 05 and 06 series of amendments of Regulation No. 48
Reference Number GRE-71-29
Date
29 Mar 2014
Summary Presently, UN R48 requires that reverse lights be switched off when cornering lights are switched off. OICA argues that the simultaneous lightning of both cornering lamps for slow maneuvers in forward motion (e.g., while parking a vehicle) can increase safety by improved illumination of surroundings. Therefore, OICA proposes that cornering lights be allowed to remain on as long as the vehicle speed does not exceed 10 km/h.
