Proposal to amend Annex 12 of the regulation to align its safety prescriptions for trolley buses with current electrical standards.

Text originally prepared by Belgium to propose amendments to Regulation No. 107 to align the additional safety prescriptions for trolleybuses (Annex 12) with the corresponding electrical standards (see document GRSG/2013/16). During discussion in the October 2013 session of GRSG, some Contracting Parties felt that the prescriptions for electromagnetic compatibility of trolleybuses belong in Regulation No. 10. So these prescriptions are taken out of the amended proposal (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRSG/2014/19) and are proposed here for consideration by GRE for further action.

Proposal to include odometers within the scope of Regulation No. 39 (as an alternative to the proposal in document GRSG-104-14 to develop a new regulation on the installation and performance of odometers).

Note to open a discussion concerning the gas-cylinder periodic inspection requirements of Annex 3 of UN R110.

Presentation in support of the proposal to include odometer provisions in UN R39, including a review of references to odometers across other UN Regulations.

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).

Proposal to clarify the provisions for the periodic inspection of pressure relief valves.

Proposal to include odometers within the scope of Regulation No. 39.

Proposal to align the requirements of UN Regulation No. 10 with regard to electromagnetic compatibility of trolleybuses with the electrical standards in Annex 12 to UN Regulation No. 107.
