Proposal to clarify that indicators, their identifications, and the identifications of controls need not be illuminated when the driver intentionally deactivates illumination and the electric vehicle is not in driving conditions.

Proposal to clarify the test conditions of rear-view camera and detection system.

Proposal to replace references to “hydrogen fuelled” with “hydrogen fuel cell” in order to exclude application to liquefied hydrogen storage systems.

Proposal to clarify figure 11 in the draft amendments to GTR No. 9 by substituting the description “Figure 11: Example of marking of HIC 1000 zone and HIC 1700 zone”.

Request for clarifications on the application of relaxation areas under UN Regulation No. 127.

Request for clarification of test procedures for active pedestrian protection devices (such as active hood, pedestrian airbag).

Proposal to require seat-belt reminders for all seating positions, including rear positions, and to clarify the scope of the regulation.

Companion presentation to the proposal contained in document GRSP-57-17.

Proposal to require seat-belt reminders for all seating positions, including rear positions, and to clarify the scope of the regulation.

Responses to questions regarding seat-belt reminders asked during the last GRSP session (May 2015) based upon various selected studies.

Proposal to introduce provisions for “deployable pedestrian protection systems in the bonnet area” (e.g., active hood systems where a pedestrian impact triggers tge hood release to allow for greater impact absorption and exterior frontal airbags).

Proposal to introduce provisions for seat-belt reminders for all vehicle seating positions pursuant to the outcome of the Task Force on Seat-belt Reminders discussions.

Draft of a request for authorization to amend GTR 9 to include provisions for deployable safety systems of the outer surface of the vehicle. This proposal originates with the development of technologies such as active hood/bonnet mechanisms that improve pedestrian impact protection. The proposal anticipates submission of a formal amendment for the June 2018 WP.29 session.

Announcement of task force establishment, organization, and meeting plans towards developing a proposal for the assessment and approval of deployable exterior pedestrian safety systems (e.g., active bonnet).

Draft proposal for eventual submission to WP.29 for the further development of the GTR on hydrogen fuel-cell vehicle safety, including the following additional areas for consideration:

1. Scope revision to address additional vehicle classes;
2. Requirements for material compatibility and hydrogen embrittlement;
3. Requirements for the fuelling receptacle;
4. Evaluation of performance-based test for long-term stress rupture proposed in Phase 1;
5. Consideration of research results reported after completion of Phase 1 – specifically research related to electrical safety, hydrogen storage systems, and post-crash safety;
6. Consideration of 200 per cent NWP or lower as the minimum burst requirement;
7. Safety guard system for the case of isolation resistance breakdown.

Presentation concerning plans to address the safety of low speed, low mass vehicles (L7 quadricycles, light electric vehicles).

On 14 November 2017, Korea introduced rear seat-belt reminder requirements into the KMVSS aligned with the 07 series of amendments to UN R16. The requirements become mandatory from 1 September 2019. At the same time, Korea also adopted the FlexPLI test tool for pedestrian protection testing aligned with the draft Amendment 2 to GTR No. 9. Compliance testing with the FlexPLI will start from 1 January 2018 (given that the FlexPLI has been in use under Korea NCAP since 2015).

Report on Korea regulation obligating a check of school buses to ensure that all children have left the vehicle. The check involves installation of a device at the back of the bus that will sound an alarm unless engaged within three minutes after engine shutoff.

Information on the regulation of category L7 micro four-wheeled vehicles.

Republic of Korea views on the amendment contents based on research regarding definition of the head test area.

Presentation on the development of an amendment

Proposal by by the experts of the Informal Working Group (IWG) of the Deployable Pedestrian Protection Systems (IWG-DPPS)

Text prepared by the experts of the Informal Working Group (IWG) of the Deployable Pedestrian Protection Systems (IWG- DPPS). proposal aims to revise ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSP/2022/02.

Proposal to amend the provisions for the DPPS Generic Vehicle (GV) Models. This Addendum provides the specifications for the generic vehicle models to be used for the qualification of pedestrian models for HIT determination according to [ GTR No.9 amendment 3 Annex 2 ]. The models and their usage are specified.

The text reproduced below was prepared by the expert from the Informal Working Group on the Deployable Pedestrian Protection Systems of UN Global Technical Regulation No. 9 to propose provisions on the development of HBM qualification corridors for Annex 2 to GTR No. 9.

Proposes provisions on DPPS (Deployable Pedestrian Protection Systems)

Propose a new Addendum 5 on provisions for the specifications for the Qualification of Human Body Models for pedestrian Head Impact Time (HIT) determination as a DPPS prerequisite.

Proposal to correct para. 6.2.5.1. (seat inertia forces) to specify application of UN R14 (not “this Regulation” as erroneously copied) for the anchorage load tests.
