6. GRSG noted a new proposal tabled by the expert from OICA (GRSG-130-21) to harmonize the location of the lower datum point (5°) of paragraph 5.1.1.3. to the angle of obstruction requirement of paragraph 5.1.3. (4°). The expert from the Kingdom of the Netherlands requested a study reservation on the proposal. GRSG requested the secretariat to distribute GRSG-130-21 with an official symbol at its 131st session.

7. The expert from the Kingdom of the Netherlands referred to an informal document (GRSG-125-23) from the 125th session of GRSG before introducing a presentation (GRSG-130-24) on mirror-chameleon treatment or foil. He explained that an increasing number of vehicles were being equipped with this kind of “privacy” foil on the windscreens and the front-side windows. Even though the windscreen might still be in compliance with transparency requirements, he raised safety concerns for road users due to lack of eye-contact with driver and law enforcement (e.g. lack of visibility of the occupants in the interior of the vehicle, use of cell phone while driving). The expert from the United Kingdom and Northern Ireland added that the Working Party on Passive Safety (GRSP) should address the visors of helmets under UN Regulation No. 22. The expert from OICA noted that the Working Party on Pollution and Energy (GRPE) should be involved in greenhouse gas reductions. Finally, the expert from the Kingdom of the Netherlands announced a working document for the 131st session of GRSG. Furthermore, the Chair of GRSG would inform WP.29 about this discussion in the highlights of this session.
