Proposal to include three-wheeled category l vehicles within the scope of ABS testing under UN R78. This would align the scope with EU Directive 93/14/EEC.
22. The expert from EC introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2015/42, proposing to apply to tricycles the existing Anti-lock Braking Systems (ABS) requirements for Powered Two Wheelers (PTWs). The proposal was accepted in principle as it proposed a harmonization with the corresponding EU directive. As the proposed wording would also affect L6 and L7 category vehicles, some experts were of the opinion that transitional provisions would be necessary. The expert from EC volunteered to prepare a revised proposal for the February 2016 session of GRRF.

Annex 3, paragraphs 4.2.(c), 5.2.(c) and 9.3.1.(c), correct the wording "single control" to read "single brake control".19. The expert from IMMA presented GRRF-79-16, proposing Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) requirements to be introduced in Regulation No. 78. The proposal received some comments.

The expert from IMMA volunteered to prepare a revised proposal for the September 2015 session of GRRF.
