GRE/2015/2 | Proposal for Supplement 11 to the original series of Regulation No. 99 Proposal to introduce a new category, 'D9S'.
GRE/2015/15 | Proposal for Supplement 7 to the 01 series of amendments to Regulation No. 98 This is a proposal to introduce a new HID category (D9S) into Regulation No. 99 with dual-level operation, i.e. with two defined wattage values and corresponding luminous flux values. This new category (D9S) is the first light source in R99 that has two defined power levels. When this dual-level light source is used in a headlamp which is being approved according to Regulation No. 98, the testing and approval provisions must be clearly defined in this Regulation to avoid misinterpretation. Therefore, it is proposed to amend the relevant paragraphs of Regulation No. 98 to take into account the multi-level aspects of D9S and possible future multi-level light sources in Regulation No. 99.

GRE/2015/3 | Proposal for Supplement 9 to the 05 series of amendments and Supplement 7 to the 06 series of amendments to Regulation No. 48 Proposal to improve the applicability of paragraph 5.7.1.3.1. (concerning the separation of grouped direction indicator and stop lamps in order to avoid "signal mix"). To improve the present requirements of paragraph 5.7.1.3.1.on the basis of the colour changes concept, three alternative approaches for a suitable separation of direction indicator lamps and stop lamp are proposed: a) the improved test of the existing paragraph 5.7.1.3.1. clarifies its application to lamps composed of more than one part and deletes the concept of "adjacent" parts of the lamps (that in the past led to different interpretations) in favour of a description of the condition of application of the requirement; b) the unchanged text of the following paragraph 5.7.1.3.2.; c) a new paragraph 5.7.1.3.3. to provide for specific electrical connections of the involved functions, in conjunction with the requirements of paragraph 5.9.2.
GRE/2015/4 | Proposal for Supplement 9 to the 05 series of amendments and Supplement 7 to the 06 series of amendments to Regulation No. 48 Proposal to introduce variable daytime running lamps into the regulation.

GRE-73-14 | Proposal for Supplement 6 to the 06 series of amendments to Regulation No. 48 Proposal to clarify the requirements with regard to daytime running lamps and direction indicators in order to prevent DRL from masking or otherwise interfering with the visibility of the direction indicator lamps. Germany believes that the current text produces different interpretations with different results that risk degrading vehicle safety.
GRE-73-15 | Regulation No. 48: Rear direction indicator lamp and stop lamp separation Supplemental presentation in support of document GRE/2015/3: Proposal for Supplement 9 to the 05 series of amendments and Supplement 7 to the 06 series of amendments to Regulation No. 48.

GRE-73-17 | Proposal for the [07] series of amendments to Regulation No. 48 Proposal to reduce glare problems for drivers by deleting the exemption in Regulation No. 48 that allows manual leveling for dipped-beam headlamps, effectively mandating automatic leveling.

GRE/2015/21 | Proposal for Supplements to the 04, 05 and 06 series of amendments to Regulations No. 48 Proposal to delete the requirement for automatic leveling devices for all headlamps with light emitting diode (LED) light sources based upon the results of the GTB glare study. The proposal argues that the restriction discriminates against LED light sources based upon an erroneous understanding of light-source relevance to driver glare.
GRE-73-12 | Revised proposal for a Supplement to Regulation No. 48 Proposal to introduce provisions for “side-illuminating lamps” that aim to improve the driver’s visibility over the opposite side of the road (on-coming traffic side) and its buffer zone to mitigate the impact of glare from on-coming vehicles.

Given current technologies (e.g., LED lamps), the performance requirements of Annex 5 can be met without reference to the angle of incidence.
GRE/2015/9 | Proposal for Supplement 1 to the 05 series of amendments to Regulation No. 10 Proposal to enable the designation of manufacturer electromagnetic compatibility facilities as approved test laboratories for the purpose of assessing conformity with UN R10.
GRE/2015/3 | Proposal for Supplement 9 to the 05 series of amendments and Supplement 7 to the 06 series of amendments to Regulation No. 48 Proposal to improve the applicability of paragraph 5.7.1.3.1. (concerning the separation of grouped direction indicator and stop lamps in order to avoid "signal mix"). To improve the present requirements of paragraph 5.7.1.3.1.on the basis of the colour changes concept, three alternative approaches for a suitable separation of direction indicator lamps and stop lamp are proposed: a) the improved test of the existing paragraph 5.7.1.3.1. clarifies its application to lamps composed of more than one part and deletes the concept of "adjacent" parts of the lamps (that in the past led to different interpretations) in favour of a description of the condition of application of the requirement; b) the unchanged text of the following paragraph 5.7.1.3.2.; c) a new paragraph 5.7.1.3.3. to provide for specific electrical connections of the involved functions, in conjunction with the requirements of paragraph 5.9.2.
