GRSG | Session 107 | 30 Sep-3 Oct 2014

Agenda item 2. (a) Proposals for further amendments

Agenda item 2. (b) Requirements for service doors, windows and emergency exits

Agenda item 2. Regulation No. 107 (M 2 and M 3 vehicles)

The newly introduced systems to detect excessive temperatures and/or smoke enable the driver to act immediately to ensure the safety of the passengers. This implies the possibility of braking, stopping, or some other response which could impact other road users. Therefore, this proposal would require the hazard warning lights to be activated (which will require consideration by the WP.29 Working Party on Lighting and Light-signalling Equipment). The proposal also proposes transitional provisions for the implementation of the new requirements.
