Proposal to amend the 1968 Vienna Convention to allow for the use of assistance and/or autonomous systems that control vehicle behavior(s) in place of the driver (which could be viewed to conflict with the Convention requirement that drivers always be able to control their vehicles).

German paper on cybersecurity and data protection:
Part A) Focus areas for presentation at the IG ITS/AD meeting in November 2015
Part B) Issues for discussion
Part C) Preliminary Draft proposal for Guidelines on measures ensuring cybersecurity and data protection of connected vehicles and vehicles with automated driving technologies (ADT)

Discussion paper on security and data protection for automated and connected vehicles, including initial proposals for guidelines and concepts towards providing a framework for building out requirements for countermeasures and performance.

Draft for final review by the ITS/AD informal group presenting guidance to assist WP.29 Working Parties in their deliberations on the regulation of automated driving systems. The guidance provides recommendations on areas considered to be of critical importance. The informal group anticipates that this document may require updating as technologies, applications, and knowledge evolve.

This document proposes a draft text for a resolution on “activities other than those related to driving” that the driver of a vehicle equipped with an automated driving system could undertake when the automated driving system is engaged.

IGLAD was initiated by Daimler AG, ACEA and different research institutes and announced as a working group at the FIA Mobility Group in October 2010. Supported by FIA and ACEA, the goal of the group is to define a common standardized accident data set as an effective foundation for developing and measuring road safety policy endorsements and interventions. This document excerpts IGLAD scenarios for consideration in the development of scenarios for use in assessing Automated Driving Systems.

Report to WP.1 (UN Global Forum for Traffic Safety).

Proposal to introduce provisions concerning automated driving systems and driver support features based on terms “driving system” and “driving mode”.

Paper describing safety considerations for remote management of automated vehicles that do not require a human driver inside the vehicle.

Proposal concerning “detected objects” and data element precision.

Proposal concerning “detected objects” and data element precision for the ADS regulation provisions on DSSAD.

The document requests guidance on the legal basis for provisions within UN Regulations extending beyond the End-of-Production date and which authority such provisions address. Examples include UN R171 requirements for manufacturers to demonstrate safety management systems to the Type Approval Authority every three years and report annually on Driven Coded Auxiliary System operation until production is discontinued, and UN R155 requirements for Cyber Security Management Systems to apply to the post-production phase when vehicles remain operational but are no longer produced. The document poses an additional question regarding vehicle safety when manufacturers cease operations and cannot fulfill post-deployment safety provisions.
