Proposal to enable application of the Regulation to vehicles equipped with Automated Driving Systems (ADS).

Proposal to amend para. 5.2.3.2.2., para. 5.2.3.2.3., para. 5.2.3.2.4., and para. 5.2.3.3. to establish requirements for vehicles of category X and Y equipped with an ADS regarding speed warning labels and information provision to the ADS about speed capacity of fitted tyres, and amend Annex 2 to include provisions for describing the automated driving system and the modes tested with ADS operation.

The Task Force on Automated Vehicle Regulation Screening held its 18th session on 2 October 2025. The agendas and reports of the 17th session were adopted. Regarding a proposal for a supplement to Regulation No. 64, the Task Force noted the need to harmonize wording for ignition on/initiation of the powertrain across regulations, discussed corrective action by the ADS, exceptions for vehicles of category X and Y, incorporation of “drive with caution” for vehicles with ADS, and fitting spare units. Regarding a proposal for a supplement to Regulation No. 142, the Task Force considered logical signal requirements and informing the ADS about tyre speed limits. The next meeting is scheduled for 29 November 2025.
