The FADS task force is responsible for reviewing the regulations under the purview of GRVA for their applicability to vehicles equipped with Automated Driving Systems. FADS also acts as the coordinator across all the ADS-screening activities of the other GR parties.
| Review of GRBP UN Regulation proposals for ADS readiness |
| Reference Number: FADS-33-03 |
|
Seven UN Regulation proposals were reviewed for consistency and errors. Issues identified include: unclear optical-logical signal transitions in R64; redundant definitions that should reference RE3 via footnotes; inconsistent ADS activity terminology requiring standardization to “when an ADS feature is active”; incorrect Category Y vehicle references in R51; spelling and numbering errors across multiple regulations; inconsistent Mass in Running Order definitions; and unclear testing provisions requiring improved cross-referencing. Corrections are necessary for regulatory robustness. |

Proposal from the GRE EMC informal working group. The modifications extend the regulation’s scope to vehicles without driver compartments or manual controls. Changes include new definitions for ADS test configurations, updated immunity-related functions to address ADS sensor performance, and revised test conditions for vehicles with active ADS features. Additional reporting requirements for ADS systems are introduced in regulatory forms. |

The document discusses the status of autonomous driving system (ADS) regulations across multiple expert groups. GRBP completed all regulations; GRE adopted R48 and R45; GRPE, GRSG, and GRSP have working documents under review for WP.29’s 199th session; GRVA completed remaining regulations. GRBP, GRPE, GRSG, and GRVA task forces will disband after June 2026. GRSP AVRS will continue work on Y category crash requirements and GRE AVSR on ADS marker lamps. Work on ESC will be handled separately without a dedicated group. |
