Proposal to require require manufacturers to provide a method for objectively determining the moment of “Risk Mitigation Function” (RMF) initiation to enable assessment of the RMF warning signals and other driver warnings, hazard lights, and indicators in relation to the objectively determined RMF initiation point.

UN R79 mandates verification that appropriate warning signals are provided to the driver based on the timing of a system intervention (e.g., in the case of a Risk Mitigation Function). This proposal aims to clarify the moment of initiation of the signals to facilitate the verification of driver warnings, hazard lights, and other indicators in relation to this objectively determined initiation point. The proposal requires manufacturers to define a clear and accessible method for objectively determining the moment of initiation.

Proposal to clarify the pretest conditions for measuring steering effort under a failure condition.
