The agenda includes a workshop with two sessions addressing whether UNR17 dynamic testing should be mandatory and updates on ongoing research including CNCAP, Euro NCAP, EvaRID, BioRID, parametric study, and SET, discussion of a potential in-real-life workshop in October at BASt, and determination of the next meeting date.

The tenth meeting of the Equitable Occupant Protection Task Force 2 on rear-end impact was held online on March 31, 2026, with 25 participants. The agenda was adopted and previous minutes were approved. The planned in-person workshop in Sweden was cancelled. An online workshop was agreed to be held June 29-30, 1200-1600 CEST both days, with an in-person workshop planned after summer.

The task force on rear impact assessment plans an online workshop June 29-30 from 1200-1600 CEST and an in-person workshop in conjunction with IRCOBI in September or later, possibly October at BASt. Topics include whether quasi-static testing in UN R17 is adequate. Presentations will cover evaluation of UN R17 whiplash protection tests using simulations, evaluation and development of regulations for whiplash protection in vehicle seats, injury criteria and biomechanical injury mechanisms, finite element models of the female Anthropomorphic Test Device, and future plans for Euro NCAP. Additional topics include rear row testing, low-speed impact testing, and improvement of certification processes for EvaRID and BioRID.
