Proposal to amend UN R43 (Safety Glazing) to take into account vehicles of category X and Y, as well as vehicles with manual mode operating at speeds above 6 km/h equipped with an Automated Driving System Feature of Type 2. The Regulation is extended to vehicles without driver and without manual driving controls. Different manual modes are considered: remote-control operation, seated in driver’s seat, and onboard operation other than seated in driver’s seat. No windscreen is required on such vehicles lacking manual mode operated on-board the vehicle driver’s seat. Requirements for light transmittance and safety glazing material are specified, with alternative provisions for vehicles without a driver’s seat.
Proposal to amend UN R167 to introduce Supplement 1 to the 01 series of amendments. The Regulation applies to vehicles of categories M2, M3, N2 and N3. Vehicles of category Y and vehicles of category X without manual mode intended to be operated on-board are exempted. Vehicles of category X with manual mode must comply. New definitions added: “Safety Concept” and “Three-dimensional reference system.” Approval marks amended to include Unique Identifier option. Alternative requirements permitted for category X vehicles with manual mode not using driver’s seat, provided equivalent safety demonstrated via safety concept. This document is intended to amend and supersede GRSG/2026/17.
The agenda includes amendments to UN Regulations on buses and coaches (UN R107), safety glazing (UN R43), vulnerable road users awareness (UN R46, UN R151, UN R158, UN R159, UN R166, UN R167), gas-fuelled vehicles (UN R67, UN R110), anti-theft and alarm systems (UN R116, UN R161, UN R162, UN R163), controls and indicators (UN R121), heating systems (UN R122), event data recorders (UN R160, UN R169), International Whole Vehicle Type Approval (UN R0), and Consolidated Resolution on Construction of Vehicles.

A design is intuitive when users understand and use it correctly and efficiently without needing instructions or prior training. Key signs include matching user expectations, requiring little explanation, giving clear feedback, minimizing thinking, maintaining consistency, and building on familiar patterns. For emergency door opening, intuitive design requires interior release control to unlock doors and unlatch without separate controls. Alternative actions for power loss must be fully intuitive, integrated or in close vicinity, within reach, and properly marked. Exterior door handles need a proper force application area for at least four fingers of an adult hand.
