Proposal to clarify and align the wording of Regulations Nos. 79, 13-H and 13.

The current text of Annex 3 of UN Regulation No. 79 covers requirements to be met in case the braking and the steering systems have the same energy source (paragraph 5.3.1.4.), and the same energy supply (paragraph 5.3.1.5.). However these requirements are not aligned with those of Regulation No. 13-H. Paragraph 1.1.2. of Annex 4 to Regulation No. 13-H requires the capacity of a certain number of sudden stops after the energy source failed ONLY in the case where the secondary braking performances cannot be met without energy assisting the muscular energy: see paragraph 1.1.2.

The current text of Annex 3 of Regulation No. 79 covers requirements to be met in case the braking and the steering systems have the same energy source (paragraph 5.3.1.4), and the same energy supply (paragraph 5.3.1.5.). However these requirements are not aligned with those of Regulation No. 13. Paragraph 1.1.3. of Annex 7 to Regulation No. 13 requires the capacity for the system of a certain number of sudden stops, after the energy source failed, ONLY in the case where the secondary braking performances cannot be met without energy assisting the muscular energy: see paragraph 1.1.3.

The current text of the provisions in Regulation No. 79 could be interpreted as the required number of sudden stops that must be achieved irrespective of the service braking design, i.e. even in the case of assisted braking system.

Proposal to extend the possibility of actuating the service braking system to vehicles of categories M2 and N2 below 5t.

Proposal for a revised UN R64 that removes the provisions for tyre-pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) (to be reproduced in a new separate regulation) in order to facilitate the application of UN R64 within the International Whole Vehicle Type Approval system.

New revised proposal to delete provisions for electronic stability and brake-assist systems from UN R13-H as part of their transposition into new stand-alone regulations.

Proposed new stand-alone UN Regulation comprised of the brake assist systems provisions of UN Regulation 13-H.

Proposal for a new stand-alone UN Regulation on electronic stability control systems comprising the ESC provisions removed from UN R13-H.

Proposed text for a new regulation on tire installation for use within the International Whole Vehicle Type Approval system.

Proposal to extend the possibility of actuating the service braking system to vehicles of categories M2 and N2 below 5t.

Proposal to correct references to paragraphs in Regulations Nos. 30 and 54 which have to be updated pursuant to renumbering in the source regulations.

Proposal to

1. exempt cases where the driver has temporarily deactivated the speed limiter from the warning requirement for excess speed in in order to reduce driver distraction
2. introduce throttle control via adjustment of the accelerator pedal position
3. to correct an editorial error in paras. 5.2.5.4.2. and 21.2.5.4.2.

Revised proposal pursuant to GRRF discussions to enable activation of the ESC optical symbol in cases of a corrective steering function intervention when the CSF intervention is activated under the control of an ESC system. The aim is to avoid separate requirements for brake-actuated and steering-actuated vehicle stability functions (VSF) that would lead to two optical warnings where only one is necessary. This would enable use of the ESC intervention tell-tale for CSF steering intervention.

Para. 5.11 of UN R34 addresses the risk of static electricity igniting gasoline. OICA submitted this proposal in order to clarify that the provisions concern gasoline fuels and not diesel (which has a low spark point).

Proposed amendments to update UN R46 in view of technological advances to permit approval of interior rearview mirrors having no housing, holder, or frame.

Proposal to correct ISO references in document GRSG/2012/7 (Forum secretariat proposal to update international standard references in UN R67).

Review of the IWVTA program, potential impact on UN Regulations, and request for Working Party (GR) support in reviewing and adapting, where warranted, the regulations being integrated into the proposed IWVTA system.

Document WP.29/2012/87 is a GRSG proposal (04 series of amendments) to reduce the blind spot on the passenger side of N2 and N3 (medium/heavy commercial) vehicles under UN R46. This new proposal would clarify that prior approvals not impacted by the 04 series amendments remain valid.

In document GRSG/2013/2, the Russian Federation proposed to amend the position requirement for interior controls of power-operated service doors in Class B vehicles from the current minimum of 1600 mm to a range between 1000-1500 mm.

Here OICA proposes to replace the suggested range with a single minimum value of 1000 mm for all classes of vehicles.

OICA supports the proposal from the EC, France, and Germany (GRSG/2013/9) to provide for a specific area on Class I buses for prams/pushchairs where a child could remain seated, but proposes changes to the text for clarity.
