Proposal to amend and supersede document ECE/TRANS/GRSG/2026/2 to UN R43. Supplement 13 to the 01 series of amendments introduces provisions for vehicles of category X and Y, and vehicles with manual mode operating above 6 km/h equipped with Automated Driving System Feature of Type 2. The amendment extends application to vehicles without driver and manual driving controls. Different manual modes are considered: remote-control operation, seated driver operation for category X, and onboard operation other than seated for category X. Requirements for windscreens, safety glazing, light transmittance, and installation provisions are modified accordingly for these vehicle categories.

Proposal to correct the wording in UN R43 (Safety Glazing). The expert from the European Association of Automotive Suppliers proposes amending paragraph 8.2.1.1. to modify a table listing tests for windscreens and glass panes of various types, including toughened glass, ordinary laminated glass, treated laminated glass, and glass-plastics. The amendment corrects the title of the optical distortion test listed in the table.
