Proposal to amend UN R151 (Blind Spot Information Systems) to account for vehicles of categories X and Y equipped with an Automated Driving System. BSIS is required to work when a driver is in control; vehicles of category Y and vehicles of category X without a manual mode intended to be operated on-board the vehicle are not required to comply. Vehicles of category X with a manual mode operated on-board not using a driver’s seat may be approved using alternative requirements demonstrating equivalent safety. The proposal amends scope, definitions, and approval marking provisions. This proposal amends and supersedes ECE/TRANS/GRSG/2026/10.

Clarification request of the consolidated text of paragraph 6.5.10 as amended
by supplement 4

Proposal from the GRSG task force on Automated Vehicles Regulation Screening to enable application of UN R151 to ADS vehicles, including the exemption of vehicle subcategories X and Y from the requirements, and to remove the references to Unique Identifier markings.
