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.

CLEPA remarks defining sensor mounting requirements for heavy vehicles (Horizontally: up to 600 mm out of vehicle center; Vertically: between 330 mm and 800 mm above road-surface level) in order to avoid safety risks.

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.

Comments on the draft amendment to UN R79 addressing automated steering as it stood at the end of the third ACSF informal group session. This document also raises links to rear vision (UN R46), AEBS (UN R131), and park assist systems.

Presentation proposing a requirement for defensive braking on vehicles equipped with ACSF because automated steering may result in driver inattention and therefore require compensating environment monitoring and automatic braking. This type of “protective braking” is viewed as a different order of braking than AEBS given that the principle involves maintaining of distances and avoiding accidents at speed rather than as an emergency or abrupt braking.
