Proposal to add classifications covering agricultural trailers and towed agricultural machinery in the Consolidated Resolution on the Construction of Vehicles (R.E.3), originally raised by GRSG. This version includes comments from its review by GRSP.
56. The secretariat introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2014/25 (initially proposed by the Working Party on Lighting and Light-Signalling (GRE)), as amended by GRRF‑78‑03 and introducing in to R.E.3, new categories of agricultural vehicles. The expert from the Russian Federation commented that the definitions proposed may create overlap especially when an agricultural vehicle could be classified as a Non Road Mobile Machinery (NRMM) and vice versa. The Chair of GRRF requested the experts to send their comments on this proposal to the secretariat.
50. The secretariat introduced a draft proposal (GRPE-69-18) by GRE to introduce in the consolidated Resolution on the construction of vehicles (R.E.3) the following new vehicle categories: agricultural trailer and towed agricultural machinery. He reported that the GRE experts preferred to involve experts from other Working Parties subsidiary to WP.29 and requested the secretariat to circulate this first draft proposal. Comments may be submitted by email to the GRE secretary (GRE@unece.org)
51. GRSP noted GRSP-55-27, or the possible insertion of new categories of vehicles (e.g. agricultural trailers and towed machinery) into the Consolidated Resolution on the Construction of Vehicles (R.E.3). It was noted that the proposal had been designed by the Working Party on Lighting and Light-Signalling (GRE) in updating UN Regulation No. 86 (Installation of lighting and light-signalling devices for agricultural tractors) and that GRE agreed to circulate the proposal to all Working Parties for comments. GRSP invited its experts to provide comments on the proposal to the secretariat, before the October 2014 session of GRE.
51. Upon the request of GRE, GRSG considered a proposal to insert into the Consolidated Resolution on the Construction of Vehicles (R.E.3) new categories T, R, and S of agricultural vehicles such as agricultural trailers and towed machinery (GRSG-106-34).
