188th WP.29 session (14-16
Nov 2022)
14. The Secretary of WP.29 introduced the list of Working Parties, Informal Working Groups and Chairs (WP.29-188-01) and invited delegations to communicate any necessary changes. He introduced the draft calendar of meetings for 2023 (WP.29-188-02), scheduled as in person meetings only as hybrid meetings could only be organized with extra-budgetary funding, which is currently not available. He presented the revised PoW, reflecting the current activities of WP.29 and its subsidiary working groups. (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2022/1/Rev.2), as well as the draft PoW for 2023 (WP.29-188-05). 15. WP.29 urged the Member States to request that adequate budget be made available for the continuation of full interpretation services for hybrid meetings, to continue giving delegations from low- and middle-income countries the possibility to participate either in person or remotely in WP.29. The full continuation of hybrid meetings is consistent with the global push to reduce carbon emissions as evidenced by the Conference of Parties, COP 27 meeting currently being held in Egypt. Delegations are invited to communicate these elements to their capitals as well as missions to the UN in Geneva and New York. 16. WP.29 recalled that the 2022 PoW had been adopted at its March 2022 session and welcomed its update. 17. The delegate of the United States of America stated that the members of WP.29 strongly support the continued use of hybrid meetings for its delegates. Over the last two years allowing the option for virtual connection to executive and working group meetings has allowed for increased participation in light of travel limitations. Recently adding in the additional option for in-person participation maximizes the opportunity for participants to most effectively engage in a manner most efficient for them. Additionally, in light of the climate crisis there are significant Green House Gas (GHG) benefits from avoiding air travel. Given the United Nation’s positions on supporting members to do their work effectively and asking all countries to do more to reduce GHG emissions, WP.29 asks that ECE prioritize resources to support the technology needed to continue full hybrid meetings. WP.29 would also support member countries raising this issue within their respective delegations. |

WP.29 also noted WP.29-188-11 (Draft UNECE Plan of Action for Road Safety) 2023-2030), prepared by the secretariat, aimed at having a better implementation on the Inland Transport Committee (ITC) recommendation on road safety (ECE/TRANS/2020/9). The secretariat also added that the document, at its early draft stage, would benchmark the implementation of the ITC strategy as a monitoring tool of the different contracting parties. Finally, he announced that subject to ITC endorsement the document would be addressed by ITC to all Working Parties in the different areas of responsibility. The representative of OICA welcomed the document since it well reflects the need for an integrated approach of all key elements of road safety; he however suggested that WP29 would need a better understanding of missing elements mentioned in the screening result of the document, considering that such missing elements should best be reviewed and agreed before submission to the Inland Transport Committee. WP.29 noted that the document would be reviewed by ITC at its next session incorporating possible comments coming from experts and representatives of the different Working Parties of UNECE involved in this endeavour. Finally, WP.29 invited its representative to provide comments to the secretariat on WP.29-188-11 at their earliest convenience. |

18. The Chair of GRVA introduced the inventory of best Automated Driving Systems (ADS) storage practices titled “Review of the national / regional activities and a proposed way forward for DSSAD” (WP.29-188-06), GRVA recommendations on ADS external light-signalling (WP.29-188-10) and the amendment proposal to the Framework Document on Automated Vehicles (FDAV) (WP.29-188-12). WP.29 endorsed these documents and requested the secretariat to distribute WP.29-188-06 (unchanged) and WP.29-188-12 (amending the mandate extension of the IWG on Cyber Security and Over the Air (CS/OTA) issues to November 2024), with official symbols at the next WP.29 session. 38. The expert from the United States of America, Co-Chair of the IWG on FRAV, introduced GRVA-14-15. He explained (a) that the IWG did not recommend mandatory requirements for additional light-signalling devices under WP.29 beyond those requirements established for manually driven vehicles, (b) that the IWG believed existing light-signalling devices may be suitable (if permitted) to signal initiation of an automated fallback response designed to place the ADS vehicle in a minimal risk condition, (c) that the IWG recommended the establishment of uniform provisions for a light signal to communicate the operational status of the ADS, if fitted on an ADS vehicle and under certain conditions to serve the purpose of countries that may wish to mandate such light-signal, (d) that the IWG noted that means other than light-signalling may be suitable to achieve safety needs, and (e) that the IWG recommended continued monitoring of research into ADS signalling and the safety of interactions between other road users and ADS vehicle. 39. GRVA reviewed the document in detail, which received comments from the experts from Canada, France, Japan, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, the United States of America as well as from AAPC, ITU, OICA and SAE International. The secretariat produced revised versions of the document reflecting the input received during the session. GRVA noted OICA’s concern with the approach of leaving the choice to mandate, allow or forbid such light signal for ADS to Countries or States (in the case of federal countries). GRVA adopted GRVA-14-15/Rev.3 (GRVA recommendations on ADS external light-signalling) and requested the secretariat to submit it to AC.2 and WP.29 for consideration at their November 2022 sessions. 40. The Secretary presented GRVA-14-44, providing information on the involvement of the GRVA Chair and Secretary at the session of WP.1, that took place during the week before the fourteenth session of GRVA. He explained that WP.1 was informed of the content in GRVA-14-15 on light-signalling for ADS, that WP.1 discussed signalling for ADS vehicles (also on the basis of an informal document that was submitted by the expert from the Netherlands), that the WP.1 Chair recalled the invitation to GRVA for a public joint event, possibly during ITC and that the contracting parties present at WP.1 expressed the interest to have an exchange (workshop) involving the GRVA IWG on FRAV and the WP.1 IGEAD. He drew the attention of GRVA to WP.1 documents (on Human Factors, on draft WP.1 resolution on activities other than driving), also posted on the GRVA webpage for convenience. 41. The expert from Canada welcomed the interaction with WP.1; he suggested that discussions on activities of common interest should also be conducted at WP.29 level, he mentioned his involvement in a WP.1 activity on human factor under agenda item 3 (d) (1), by chairing a panel discussion on human factor. He did not favour a public joint event with WP.1. He suggested to resume the work on taxonomy, definitions and lexicon (initiated a few years before COVID-19). 42. The expert from OICA described the two kinds of events discussed by WP.1. He mentioned on the one side the invitation of WP.1 Chair to GRVA for a communication exercise and on the other side the WP.1 decision for a workshop co-organized by IWG on FRAV and IGEAD, serving the purpose of sharing information, avoiding double work or repetitions, identifying items of common interest and avoiding slowing down the work. He confirmed the information provided by the secretariat in GRVA 14-44 and stated the industry’s need for harmonized traffic rules to avoid the fragmentation of rules, that would have to be added in ADS algorithms. 43. The expert from Canada recalled the nature of IGEAD, an informal group of interested parties. He stated that any discussion would need to be brought back to WP.1 and that such repetition would be beneficial. 44. GRVA noted that the collaboration should not impact the respective internal processes. GRVA invited the Chair to report to AC.2 and WP.29 on informal exchanges between the GRVA IWG on FRAV and the WP.1 IGEAD. FRAV recommendations on AV external signalling

112. The representative of South Africa, Chair of the Informal Working Group introduced informal documentWP.29-188-16 highlighting key observations of the third and fourth meetings of the group to WP.29. He recalled questions were raised on the role of the IWG and how it tied to activities of the United Nations Road Safety Fund (UNRSF) project, “safer and cleaner used vehicles for Africa”. He also noted the African Organizations for Standardizations (ARSO) activities in the region which is aimed at improving intra-African trade while expressing the need coordination of related activities. 113. The Chair pointed out regions that had successfully implemented programs to ensure only safe and clean vehicles were imported and noted the IWG could learn from such regions. He referred to the on-going activities of the Life Cycle Assessment of vehicles at different levels within WP.29, he also noted these activities could feed into the work of the IWG. 114. The Chair noted even though there was little participation from African countries, WP.29 had a responsibility to ensure that vehicles driven in these regions as well as those transferred to different regions on a global scale, could ensure protection of its users. The chair invited WP.29 to consider informal documents WP.29-18-14, WP.29-18-15 and WP.29-18-16 for adoption. 115. The representative of the United States of America, Vice-Chair of the IWG, mentioned the UNRSF project and highlighted the results of UNEP’s intervention within the project that had established policies in West and East Africa where Euro 4/IV emission levels were identified as a minimum requirement without inclusion of other equivalent emission levels. He emphasized the need to reconcile the different related activities and the inclusion of other emission and safety regimes. 116. The representative of OICA reminded WP.29 of its 2019 Manifesto on Global Road Safety with recommendations on the requirements that countries with an emerging automotive market could put in place for new vehicles and possibly extend to used vehicles depending on the country’s government. He said the manifesto had been updated and recently published with new requirements and this could be useful to the work of the IWG. In conclusion he noted the manifesto covered only vehicle safety elements. 117. The representative of Sweden echoed the opinion of the United States of America on global inclusion of emission levels. He highlighted that the Basel Convention and the EU’s End-of-Life Vehicle (ELV) Directive were legal instruments that still try to differentiate between waste and vehicles, which is not in the scope of PTI. He identified PTI as a specific legal instrument that can certify a vehicle as safe to be driven in the region of registration and can be applied in different regions and legislation. He concluded that there a was need for coordination between relevant authorities in the European Union. 118. The representative of Germany mentioned its involvement in the export of used vehicles to different regions while highlighting their experience in the registration and validation of vehicles however, due to restrictions of the data protection regime in force, the possibility to share vehicle information with receiving countries was limited. He said such restrictions could pose a challenge to importing countries in verifying how a vehicle was manufactured and if they met the necessary import requirement of a given country. He supported the statement of Sweden in addressing this issue at a European level through the ELV Directive once it had been reviewed. 119. The representative of the United States of America, Vice-Chair of the IWG, raised a question to clarify from OICA if the manifesto was focused on both new and used vehicles. The representative of OICA clarified that its focus is on new vehicles, but this may be applicable to used vehicles depending on the country’s government and how the manifesto is to be applied in a country. 120. The representative of FIA highlighted PTI as an important key to transfer of used vehicles and a good starting point to the work of the IWG. He noted it was important to define key criteria of PTI and how long each test should last within the framework of the IWG. 121. The Secretary of WP.29 noted there was need for shared responsibility from both importing and exporting countries. He called on exporting countries to ensure only technically safe and clean vehicles should be allowed to leave their countries to other regions. He also highlighted the harsh conditions at the port of export could affect some technical safety and environmental features of vehicles. 122. WP.29 adopted the Terms of Reference of the IWG and proposed the initial mandate of the group should last till the end of 2025. |

The Chair pointed out regions that had successfully implemented programs to ensure only safe and clean vehicles were imported and noted the IWG could learn from such regions. He referred to the on-going activities of the Life Cycle Assessment of vehicles at different levels within WP.29, he also noted these activities could feed into the work of the IWG. 114. The Chair noted even though there was little participation from African countries, WP.29 had a responsibility to ensure that vehicles driven in these regions as well as those transferred to different regions on a global scale, could ensure protection of its users. The chair invited WP.29 to consider informal documents WP.29-18-14, WP.29-18-15 and WP.29-18-16 for adoption. 115. The representative of the United States of America, Vice-Chair of the IWG, mentioned the UNRSF project and highlighted the results of UNEP’s intervention within the project that had established policies in West and East Africa where Euro 4/IV emission levels were identified as a minimum requirement without inclusion of other equivalent emission levels. He emphasized the need to reconcile the different related activities and the inclusion of other emission and safety regimes. 116. The representative of OICA reminded WP.29 of its 2019 Manifesto on Global Road Safety with recommendations on the requirements that countries with an emerging automotive market could put in place for new vehicles and possibly extend to used vehicles depending on the country’s government. He said the manifesto had been updated and recently published with new requirements and this could be useful to the work of the IWG. In conclusion he noted the manifesto covered only vehicle safety elements. 117. The representative of Sweden echoed the opinion of the United States of America on global inclusion of emission levels. He highlighted that the Basel Convention and the EU’s End-of-Life Vehicle (ELV) Directive were legal instruments that still try to differentiate between waste and vehicles, which is not in the scope of PTI. He identified PTI as a specific legal instrument that can certify a vehicle as safe to be driven in the region of registration and can be applied in different regions and legislation. He concluded that there a was need for coordination between relevant authorities in the European Union. 118. The representative of Germany mentioned its involvement in the export of used vehicles to different regions while highlighting their experience in the registration and validation of vehicles however, due to restrictions of the data protection regime in force, the possibility to share vehicle information with receiving countries was limited. He said such restrictions could pose a challenge to importing countries in verifying how a vehicle was manufactured and if they met the necessary import requirement of a given country. He supported the statement of Sweden in addressing this issue at a European level through the ELV Directive once it had been reviewed. 119. The representative of the United States of America, Vice-Chair of the IWG, raised a question to clarify from OICA if the manifesto was focused on both new and used vehicles. The representative of OICA clarified that its focus is on new vehicles, but this may be applicable to used vehicles depending on the country’s government and how the manifesto is to be applied in a country. 120. The representative of FIA highlighted PTI as an important key to transfer of used vehicles and a good starting point to the work of the IWG. He noted it was important to define key criteria of PTI and how long each test should last within the framework of the IWG. 121. The Secretary of WP.29 noted there was need for shared responsibility from both importing and exporting countries. He called on exporting countries to ensure only technically safe and clean vehicles should be allowed to leave their countries to other regions. He also highlighted the harsh conditions at the port of export could affect some technical safety and environmental features of vehicles. 122. WP.29 adopted the Terms of Reference of the IWG and proposed the initial mandate of the group should last till the end of 2025. |
