12 Feb UN R149: Proposal for a Supplement to the 01 series of amendments (IMMA) GRE/2026/5 2026-02-12 roposal to expand the application of glare-free Adaptive Driving Beam (ADB) for category L<sub>3</sub> motorcycles under UN R149, by introducing additional driving beam classes aligned with UN R53 motorcycle requirements and adding symmetrical passing beam-based photometric requirements below the H-H line (Table 13, Part C).
