Proposal to specify a head restraint height between 720 mm and 830 mm including a new method for measuring the effective height of head restraints, use of the Biofidelic Rear Impact Device (BioRID II) test dummy, and to improve the overall text. This proposal also eliminates the backset measurement test procedure using the HRMD method.

Proposal to add the specifications of flexible Pedestrian Legform Impactor (FlexPLI) to the Resolution on test devices.

Proposal to clarify that modifications need only be notified to the Type Approval Authority when they have an influence on the performance (compliance with technical requirements of UN R16) and/or the documentation required by the UN Regulation.

Proposal to amend the dynamic option of the draft 10 series of amendments (document GRSP/2018/34). CLEPA proposes that injury risk limits should be based not only on the injury risk curves, but also on technical feasibility given the repeatability and reproducibility limits of the BioRID II test tool. This proposal also corrects the definition of T(end) which is different from T-HRC.

Proposal to clarify the application of GTR 7 Phase 2 static alternative provisions and to modify the allowed range of tolerances under the backset retention and energy dissipations test. The proposal would re-introduce certain paragraphs in the 09 series of amendments removed by the draft 10 series (GRSP/2018/34). In addition, the proposals adds the area where the gap measurement procedure by the sphere is appropriate per the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 202a (i.e. only gaps in the area over 540 mm).

Proposal developed by the informal working group on protective helmets to introduce new categories of helmets and update provisions, including for sun visors. The new series would tentatively be phased in during 2022-2024.

Proposal to introduce a tolerance for the position of the loading device during the test. The loading device is required to be parallel to the x-y plane of the chassis. This proposal would add a z dimension to the x-y plane and set a tolerance such that the loading device may not deviate by more than 5° along the z-axis.

Proposal to explicitly state that functional safety requirements apply to categories of vehicles beyond M₁ through the addition of the following text marked in bold:

When leaving the vehicle, the driver shall be informed by a signal (e.g. optical or audible signal) if the vehicleis still in the active driving possible mode. Moreover, in case of vehicles of category M₂ and M₃, such signal shall already be given when leaving the driver seat.

Proposal to include booster cushion categories within the scope of the 03 series of amendments to UN R129.

Proposal to introduce objective criteria for evaluating whether a door remains latched following the pole impact test. Under UN R135, rear doors on the impacted side of the vehicle not directly struck by the pole may nonetheless be subjected to heavy loads and therefore need to be assessed. This proposal corresponds to a similar clarification already introduced into UN R95 on side impacts.

Proposal to amend the dynamic option of the proposal of amendment 1 of UN Global Technical Regulation No. 7 submitted by the Informal Working Group on the Phase 2 of UN GTR No. 7 (document GRSP/2018/27).

Proposal to amend the static options of the proposal of amendment 1 of UN Global Technical Regulation No. 7 submitted by the Informal Working Group on the Phase 2 of UN GTR No. 7 (document GRSP/2018/27).
