Different in-use scenarios for automatically commanded steering functions.

Two sample Level 3 driving scenarios prepared by OICA for the ITS/Automated Driving informal group.

Slides outlining Level 3 system behavior per the Traffic Jam and Motorway Assist examples in document ITS/AD-06-05.

Vehicle maker overview and input on automated driving technologies.

OICA presentation on approaches and trade-offs in handling driver availability for transitions between automated vehicle system and human driver.

OICA comments on the working draft guidelines for cybersecurity and data protection (version ITS/AD-08-05).

Revised version of document ITS/AD-AH-01-03/Rev.3.

Vehicle manufacturer perspectives on the permissibility of non-driving activities by the operator of a highly automated vehicle. This presentation relates to discussions between traffic regulators (represented by UN Working Party 1) and vehicle regulators (represented by UN Working Party 29) on responses under traffic laws and vehicle regulations to the advent of automated driving systems.

Vehicle manufacturer input for general brainstorming discussion on the regulation of automated driving systems and highly automated vehicles. OICA proposes a framework and has begun drafting elements of what might be included in a UN Regulation on highly automated (Levels 3-5) vehicles.

This text represents a first draft of “certification-neutral” technical requirements for a “Data Storage System for Automated Driving”, as presented by OICA in March 2018 ITS/AD session n°14.

Document to provide information on the proposed “3-pillar approach” certification scheme to demonstrate the level of safety and reliability which allows for safe market introduction of automated/autonomous vehicles.

OICA review of the various national and regional guidelines on automated vehicle testing and development and perspectives for the development of a regulatory framework and vehicle certification procedure.

Comparison of guidance documents published regarding the testing and deployment of automated vehicles.

Presentation on current OICA thinking on methodologies for the certification or approval of automated vehicles and automated driving systems. This presentation supports document GRVA/2019/13.

Updated document to provide information on a “multi-pillar approach” certification scheme to demonstrate the level of safety and reliability which allows for safe market introduction of automated/autonomous vehicles, including refinement via the synthesis of Contracting Party AV guidance to provide a framework for defining specific safety elements.

Matrix illustrating a possible way that use of simulation, track, and real world testing might be applied to the various automated vehicle safety elements identified by WP.29 Contracting Parties.

Information on several national projects to develop driving scenario databases to define conditions that automated vehicles need to navigate in real-world operation.

Preliminary list of safety elements derived from a review of the guidelines and policies issued by Contracting Parties.

Modified list to ensure full alignment with the WP.29 AV Framework Document.

Industry comments on the draft conceptual framework and principles for automated vehicles.

Review of GRSG regulations and possible need for changes to address automated driving. The table considers how often regulations refer to a “driver” where the absence of a human driver could raise questions.

Safety elements gathered from national guidelines, WP.29 documents, and other sources for consideration in developing eventual performance requirements for ADS.

Proposal to amend the Consolidated Resolution on the Construction of Vehicles (RE3) under the 1958 Agreement to introduce technical definitions for subcategories of vehicles equipped with automated driving systems.

Proposal to exempt CSF and ESC from prohibition on use of Advanced Driver Assistance Steering Systems while an ADS feature is active.

Proposal to clarify the EDR trigger input in the case of vehicles approved to UN R169 (M₂, M₃, N₂, N₃) equipped with airbags (Supplemental Restraint Systems).

The change request seeks clarification that “real-time” operational and tactical functions of the DDT, particularly “sensing and perception” and “planning and decision”, could be achieved through real-time sensor inputs alone or through integration of sensor inputs with other contextual information such as map-based data, to aid technical inspectors during testing and assessment of ADS systems.

The ADS regulations (GTR and UNR) include definitions for reporting thresholds based on EDR triggering. Time-series data recording for heavy vehicles under UN R169 requires triggers and trigger thresholds to record data in specified time periods, which may not immediately precede, follow, or coincide with crashes. Last Stop, Safety Systems, and Sudden Deceleration triggers are unreliable crash indications. Sudden Deceleration is too sensitive for storing time-series data over several months. Optional SRS or a new independent trigger alongside Detected Collision offers the only viable possibility for effective time-series data recording.
