Proposal as approved by the GRE to introduce flashing side marker lamps for vehicles of categories M2, M3, N2, N3, O3 and O4 with the objective of improving the safety of vulnerable road users by informing them about the intended turns of buses and heavy goods vehicles and their trailers. This document also makes editorial corrections.
12. The expert from Germany presented a revised proposal to require side marker lamps to flash together with direction indicators on heavy goods vehicles and buses (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/2014/33, GRE-72-22) as well as additional transitional provisions (GRE-72-05 and GRE-72-06). Following an in-depth discussion, GRE adopted this proposal as contained in Annex VI to the report and requested the secretariat to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration and vote at their March 2015 sessions as draft Supplement 5 to the 06 series of amendments to Regulation No. 48. GRE agreed not to include any specific transitional provisions, because the transitional provisions for the 06 series of amendments would also apply to this proposal.
16. The expert from Italy introduced proposals for correction related to several series of amendments to Regulation No. 48 (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/2014/37). GRE adopted these proposals and requested the secretariat to combine them with the proposal adopted at the previous session (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/71, para. 16) and then submit to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration and vote at their March 2015 sessions as separate draft Supplements to the 04, 05 and 06 series of amendments to Regulation No. 48.
