Several vehicle control regulations refer to compliance with UN Regulation No. 10 on electromagnetic compatibility. The proposal would revise these references to focus only on the technical (thus excluding administrative) requirements since some countries do not apply UN R10.

Proposal to include a footnote in the scope of the regulation alerting type approval authorities to the possibility for exemptions to the automatic emergency braking systems requirements based upon reasonable technical feasibility, cost/benefit, and/or other evidence. The broad notion is that AEBS is intended to prevent accidents due to inattention while driving long distances, especially on highways. Therefore, vehicles designed for purposes not given to such monotonous long-distance travel should, under this proposal, logically be exempted on a case-by-case basis from AEBS requirements.

Explanation of OICA’s requests to exempt certain vehicles from mandatory AEBS and/or LDWS requirements due to their uses and the technical limitations of these systems. For example, the sensors used by the systems cannot operate reliably on certain special purpose equipment (such as snow plows) where the equipment and the nature of the operating environment are prohibitive.

Proposal to modify the introductory comments of this regulation to explain the rationale for the exemption of certain vehicles from mandatory compliance with its requirements.

Proposal to modify the introductory comments in this regulation in order to explain the rationale behind the exemption of certain vehicles from mandatory compliance with its requirements.

Vehicle manufacturers are currently implementing AEBS on a large variety of models, e.g. to fulfil mandatory requirements of some Contracting Parties. This implementation work confirms the concerns which were brought up for discussion during the AEBS/LDWS informal group activities and sheds light on a number of technical issues that appeared when installing obstacle detection devices on some specific vehicles, in particular in case of huge technical diversity and where the vehicle environment can have negative impact on system reliability and on its ability to operate. This proposal would alter the regulation scope to exempt such vehicles from mandatory compliance.

OICA proposal, as revised pursuant to comments received during the 80th GRRF (September 2015) session, to amend the Introduction section of UN R131 to highlight technical issues related to the installation of AEBS on some specific vehicles included in the scope of the regulation.

OICA/CLEPA comments on the proposal to restrict manual deactivation of AEB systems to speeds under 30 km/h, noting cases where, given the current state of the technology, manual deactivation (regardless of speed) is warranted.

OICA counter-proposal to address the German concern over manual deactivations of AEB systems. The original document (GRRF/2017/24) proposed automatic reactivation of the AEBS when the vehicle speed exceeds 30 km/h. OICA proposes reactivation after 15 minutes of continuous operation at a speed above 70 km/h.

Proposal for collective amendments of amendments to Regulations Nos. 13 (Heavy vehicle braking), 13-H (Brakes of M1 and N1 vehicles), 79 (Steering equipment) and 89 (Speed limitation devices) and the new Regulations on LDWS and AEBS to clarify the references to Regulation No. 10 into the UN Regulations mentioned above.

Text prepared by the International Organization of Automobile Manufacturers (OICA) proposing to amend the Introduction of the regulation to highlight technical issues related to the installation of AEBS on some specific vehicles included in the scope of the regulation.

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

Proposed changes to align RxSWIN provisions with the RxSWIN template adopted through WP.29-197-06, remove the proposed requirement to comply with UN R156/01 or later from R157 and R171, remove amendments to UN R155 as decided by the IWG CS/OTA, apply the RxSWIN amendments also to earlier series of amendments in R13, R13-H, R79, R131, R152, R157, and R171, update references to the latest version of R.E.3, ECE/TRANS/WP.29/78/Rev.8, in earlier series, and correct paragraph references and improve structure in R89, R139, R140, R155, R156, and R171.
