Proposal to clarify:

1. The voltage requirements for light-emitting diodes (LED),
2. The requirements for the activation of direction-indicator lamps to ensure compatibility with driver control assistance systems as permitted under UN Regulation No. 171,
3. That direction-indicator lamps on one side of a vehicle shall be switched ON and OFF automatically, and
4. The provisions for category 5 devices by adding “per side” in the requirements.

Paragraph 5.41 of the proposed amendment to UN Regulation No. 48 introduces a requirement for a physical test drive to verify that an Automated Driving System (ADS) can correctly operate all lighting and light-signalling functions without causing discomfort. While OICA fully supports the objective of ensuring safety and proper functioning of lighting systems under ADS control, we believe this requirement is unnecessary and duplicative in the context of the forthcoming UN Regulation on Automated Driving Systems (ADS Regulation).

Proposal to define “work lamps” and establish minimum specifications for safe use.

Proposal to delete the 2m width requirement for parking lamps, allow the installation of side-marker lamps combined with retro-reflectors on the lateral foremost position on semi-trailers, and to introduce provisions for reversing projections (projection of patterns on the road).

Proposal to delete the 2m width requirement for parking lamps, to allow the installation of side-marker lamps combined with retro-reflectors on the lateral foremost position on semi-trailers, and to enable the approval of reversing projections (projection of patterns on the road).

Proposal to amend UN R48 to enable its application to ADS vehicles, including to introduce
vehicles with a “driving system which controls its operation or may be operated by driver
support features or automated driving features or by an Automated Driving System (ADS).”

Proposal to amend the Regulation to enable its application to ADS vehicles, including to introduce “vehicles with a driving system [that] controls its operation or may be operated by driver support features or automated driving features or by an Automated Driving System (ADS).”

Proposal to prohibit the inclusion of a manufacturer logo in headlamps under UN R149 and to limit the approval of light-signalling devices with a logo to the 01 series of amendment of UN R149 under UN R48.

Idea from Germany to simplify the lifetime requirements for non-replaceable light source(s) and non-replaceable light source module(s) given that the lifetime of a LED light source is much higher than the lifetime of a filament lamp.

Proposal aims to introduce Direction Indicator Projections. This proposal intends to introduce the possibility of light-signalling, in form of projection of patterns on the road, for other road users through new light-signalling function “Direction indicator projection”.
