Proposal from the Netherlands, with support from Finland, Italy, France and Germany, to require installation of direction indicators on mopeds.

Presentation in support of the proposa to introduce new light emitting diode (LED) substitute light source categories C5W/LEDK and R5W/LED (document GRE/2019/9).

Presentation in support of the proposal to introduce new LED substitute light source categories W5W/LEDK and WY5W/LED (document GRE/2019/10).

Proposal for corrections to UN Regulation 65 (Special Warning Lamps) based upon Supplement 10 to the original Regulation. A recent review of the content of UN Regulation 65 has revealed some long-standing editorial errors that do not affect the technical requirements but do create confusion.

Proposal from the Task Force on Substitutes and Retrofits (TF SR) to modify GRE/2018/40, where the information for the 24V version was missing, and to implement editorial corrections. GRE/2018/40 was adopted by GRE during its 80th session as part of a package which also includes amendments to UN Regulation No. 128.

Updated proposal, superseding document GRE/2019/11, to:

1. update requirements for headlamps and daytime running lamps related to headlamp switching. In particular, the proposed 07 series of amendments aims to clarify electrical connection requirements, conditions for manual switching OFF of headlamps, and new definitions for switching ON/OFF and for activating/deactivating lamps;
2. introduce technical parameters for speed and vehicle distance, allowing reduced intensity at speeds lower than 20 km/h, in order to encourage reduced glaring effects from rear signaling lamps;
3. introduce references to the three new simplified lighting Regulations (Light-Signalling Devices (LSD), Road Illumination Devices (RID) and Retro-Reflective Devices (RRD)).

• Paragraph 5.26 contains the two proposed alternatives from France
• Paragraph 5.26.2. contains the proposals from Czech Republic and GTB
• Paragraph 6.2.7.5.1. contains 3 alternatives for subparagraph (d)
• Paragraph 6.19.7.6. (new) contains the proposal from OICA because of the replacement of “may” by “shall”
• Paragraph 12.6 contains the OICA proposed changes of the Transitional Provisions, linked to ESS introduction.

Proposal for changes to the discussion document presenting potential new requirements for headlamp levelling, in particular regarding the vertical inclination in relation to the dipped-beam headlamp mounting height.

Supporting data justifying the headlamp aiming and cut-off points diagrammed in the proposal for a new series of amendments (GRE-81-13).

Comments on the proposal to introduce requirements for testing sun-load impact.

Clarification of the proposal to render optional the fitment of front position lamps where the motorcycle is fitted with qualified automatic headlamp switching or daytime running lamps.

Proposal to require installation of direction indicators on mopeds.

Discussion document presenting potential new requirements for headlamp levelling, in particular regarding the vertical inclination in relation to the dipped-beam headlamp mounting height.

Proposal to clarify the requirements of paragraph 5.26. for the variable luminous intensity of four different light signaling functions: rear direction indicator lamps of category 2b, rear position lamps of category R2, stop lamps of category S2,and rear fog lamps of category F2. The intent is to ensure that all the lamps maintain their proportionate relationships throughout the transitions in luminosity.

vary all together proportionally.

Proposal to correct and clarify the requirements for daytime running lamps (DRL) in conjunction with rear position lamps.

Proposal to allow under specified conditions the use of logos inside the illuminating surface of a signalling lamp.

Proposal to introduce requirements for testing the sun load impact to avoid delays in the perception of light signals under certain sunlight conditions.

Proposal to introduce provisions:

1. For vehicles intended for use by the armed services and forces responsible for maintaining public order: the manual switching off of all lighting devices in all circumstances;
2. In the absence of a “vehicle door assistance and warning system”: the mandatory application of the hazard warning lights to reduce the safety risks in the case a door is opened to the traffic side.

Proposal to restore the original automatic headlamp ON (AHO) requirement for vehicles not equipped with daytime running lamps (DRL). The 03 series of amendments (focusing on DRL) as approved by GRE during its October 2018 session (document GRE/2018/50) changes provisions for automatic headlamps as adopted for motorcycles in 2004 (see document GRE/2003/12/Rev.1). While appropriate for vehicles equipped with DRL, the changes would reduce safety for vehicles not equipped with DRL.
