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

Amendment to document 2024/9

Proposal to amend RE3 to align with UN R156 and other regulation requirements for use of the RxSWIN identification number.

Discussion of ADS safety regulation and the use of traffic scenarios in assessments.

Proposal to amend the requirements for the visible volume to the front of the vehicle (relative to the distance between the A-pillars or Inter A-Pillar Distance (IAPD)).

Proposal to remove the possibility of different technical requirements being applied by Type Approval Authorities when mechanical couplings for agricultural tractors with a maximum speed in excess of 60 km/h are submitted for type approval testing. The amendment would align requirements with European Union approvals which are accepted to be technically correct in design and safe to use at all speeds. This is achieved by the removal of the clause in annex 6 that requires different technical requirements for mechanical couplings to be used on agricultural tractors with a maximum speed in excess of 60 km/h.

Proposal as updated during the 7th EBSIG session.

Request for authorisation to develop a new GTR.

Proposal to clarify that high capacity vehicles and vehicles with conflicting purposes do not have to meet the requirements for the Subsection Frontal Visible Volume and to update the transitional provisions (superseding the provisions in GRSG/2024/6).

Proposal to clarify that all speedometers and/or odometers installed on a vehicle in the case of more than one shall comply with the requirements of UN R39.

Proposal to clarify that high capacity vehicles and vehicles with competing objectives do not have to meet the requirement for the Subsection Frontal Visible Volume (SFVV), to describe how the SFVV should be calculated to take account of the reduced volume for vehicles with narrower cab designs, and to revise and correct the transitional included in document GRSG/2024/6.

Proposal to amend RE3 to align with UN R156 and other regulation requirements for use of the RxSWIN identification number.

Proposal to restore a footnote omitted during the preparation of the document.

Proposal to enable use of virtual testing methodology as alternative methodology to the physical tests.

Updated during the FADS session discussions.

Proposal to clarify the requirements for non-original replacement exhaust silencing systems (NORESS).

Proposal to clarify the provisions concerning the conditions for automatic re-instatement of the system at the “initiation of each engine start / run cycle”.

Includes FADS session discussion.

Proposal from Australia, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Republic of Korea, the Netherlands, Spain, the United Kingdom and the European Commission to introduce the term and definition of “common space”, provisions for ensuring the confidentiality of intellectual property, and to note exemptions for existing approvals with regard to the provision “to allow egress” in the approval Communication form.

Proposal by Australia, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Republic of Korea, the Netherlands, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the European Commission to revise requirements on thermal propagation and the approval of electric powered vehicles.

Proposal to amend document GRBP/2024/21

Proposal to align the original proposal to amend UN R171 with UN R79 and UN R157 with regard to the use of the term “activation” in relation to the powertrain.

Proposal to update the text in line with the establishment of UN R171 on DCAS.

Proposal for revised provisions concerning initiation of the powertrain and run cycle.

Revised proposal concerning reinstatement of the system at initiation of the powertrain.

Proposal to modify the in-service performance reporting requirements.

Proposal for driver acknowledgement of correct use of DCAS.

This proposal aims to make extendible trailers conform to all lateral protection requirements for trailers regardless of length, in
order to remove the safety risk to vulnerable road users when the trailer is in the fully extended position. This is achieved by the removal of section 13.1.1. and 16.1.1 that specify some exemptions to requirements when the trailer is extended.
