19. Collective amendments to UN Regulations that impact automated vehicles

38. The expert from Germany gave a status update on the work of the GRSP Task Force on Automated Vehicles Regulation Screening (TF-AVRS) (informal document GRSP-77-41). Regarding the transport of children, he argued in favour of adding provisions explicitly preventing the transport of unsupervised children by Automated Driving Systems (ADSs). The expert from OICA recalled a resolution on the deployment of highly and fully automated vehicles in road traffic by the Global Forum for Road Traffic Safety (WP.1). On the question of whether to extend the scope of the UN Regulation dealing with crash testing or creating a separate one for category Y vehicles, the experts from Spain and the Netherlands argued in favour of the second option and the expert from Sweden suggested this item be discussed in the task force.

39. The expert from Germany informed GRSP that the task force had already prepared draft amendments to all UN Regulations identified as first priority (Nos. 11, 14, 16, 17, 21, 29, 94, 95, 100, 135, 137, 153, 173 and 174) and two of the UN Regulations identified as second priority (Nos. 127 and 145). The draft amendments are contained in informal documents GRSP-77-57, GRSP-77-58, GRSP-77-59, GRSP-77-60, GRSP-77-61, GRSP-77-62, GRSP-77-63, GRSP-77-64, GRSP-77-65, GRSP-77-66, GRSP-77-67, GRSP-77-68, GRSP-77-69, GRSP-77-70, GRSP-77-71, GRSP-77-72 and GRSP-77-73 . Amendments to UN GTRs are planned in a third step.
