The report presented at GRSP in May referenced 3 different bus v. bus, low overlap front collisions, with fatal outcome
o Q: Did the buses involved comply with UN R 29 and/or UN R 93?
o A: None of the 6 buses involved in these accidents complied with UN R 29 or UN R 93

Proposal to introduce a definition for “Vehicle of historical interest” to facilitate the preservation of such vehicles within the context of regulatory advances in line with technological progress.

Interpretation question on the provision “With the exception of retro-reflectors, a lamp even bearing an approval mark is deemed not to be present when it cannot be made to operate by the sole installation of a light source and/or a fuse.”

Input concerning two-phased development of the new UN Regulation.

Discussion on the introduction of technical requirements applying to the bus front to reduce the extent of damage and injury in connection with potential frontal impact accidents. It has also been raised by the labour unions that buses need to become more crash resistant. Plan is to change the scope and perhaps add a new section for testing the front of the buses. Alternatively make a new regulation for frontal protection for buses.
