30. During the consultations, the expert from China proposed reflecting on the possibility of regulating parking functions. The presentation (GRVA-25-37) included an overview of existing functions, an overview of existing regulations in this area, and a proposal to develop a UN GTR covering both assisted and automated parking functions. The expert from Norway inquired whether data were available on the benefits of these systems, for example in terms of collision avoidance. The expert from Germany considered that the existing regulations already covered these systems. In response, the expert from China pointed to possible areas requiring clarification, including provisions related to the Human-Machine Interface (HMI) and Driver Monitoring System (DMS), which may be specific to these systems. The expert from China, GRVA Vice-Chair, clarified that, beyond the question of establishing a new group on parking functions, China was interested in understanding whether GRVA would take up this topic. The expert from the European Commission noted that the relevant requirements had already been developed and that the priority was to focus on their uniform implementation. She supported the establishment of a new group focusing on implementation in general and considered parking functions to be one of the use cases for its consideration.

31. GRVA noted GRVA-25-37 presented by the expert from China and agreed to resume consideration of this proposal in September 2026.
