Proposal to clarify that an appropriate ADSF-1 response to road-safety agent instructions could be a transfer of control to the fallback user while appropriately managing the response during system-initiated deactivation, add that deactivation of the ADS to enable non-ADS strategies to comply with road safety agent instructions is an appropriate response, label examples of non-ADS strategies and road safety agent instructions, and amend punctuation and references to jurisdiction in the final sentence.
Proposal for guidance on reporting average feature engagement time in para. 4. The average engagement time is a statistical measure of how long an ADS feature stays engaged per activation (e.g., cumulative time / number of activations). The average is expected to be computed in an aggregated manner, i.e., over the whole fleet of vehicles having the same ADS feature.
Proposal to clarify reporting of vehicle approval numbers by inserting “(if applicable)” after “national or supra-national regulatory frameworks” in the vehicle approval number section of GTR Annex 2/UNR Annex 4. The insertion indicates that the vehicle approval number does not apply in all jurisdictions.
Proposal to remove guidance on prevention of unsafe takeovers. The document proposes deletion of the statement “Such an occurrence is expected to be reported when situation is unsuitable or unsafe for the subsequent mode of vehicle operation” from para. 15 of GTR Annex 1/UNR Annex 3, with no replacement text provided. The rationale indicates this removal reflects OPI group discussions aimed at finalizing the GID by resolving remaining open items.
Proposal to delete reference to no response within required time in section 14 on fallback user unavailability, and add reference to para. 4.2.2.1.6 (c) as the requirement for reporting MRC required due to non-response.
Proposal to add a note that no guidance is provided on reporting when a feature required remote interaction to navigate a situation. The revised text adds that an active ADS feature required remote interaction to navigate a driving situation and marks guidance as N/A. This change was accepted as amended following OPI-group discussions aimed at finalizing the GID by reaching a compromise solution on remaining open items.
Proposal to clarify guidance on reporting unauthorized modifications to the ADS by deleting “Such an occurrence is expected to be reported in case of” and replacing it with “Examples of unauthorised modifications to the ADS could include”, deleting “Sensor tampering; obstruction;” and inserting language to specify that ADS-relevant software or hardware tampering, or third-party hardware interfering with ADS, could constitute unauthorized modifications affecting intended functionality.
