Proposal to amend Figure 1 in para. 4.2.2.2.3 to add an (ADS feature) Available box within the ADS Standby box. The (ADS feature) Available state shows that no ADS feature is performing the DDT, however the ADS may be performing some other activity such as determining whether the vehicle is in the ODD. The figure depicts ADS Off, ADS Standby, ADS Feature (A) Active, ADS Feature (B) Active states with transitions for Activation, Deactivation, Switching On, and Switching Off.

Proposal to clarify that ADS Off means the ADS is prevented from performing any activity, and ADS On means the ADS has been requested to perform activity, either an ADS feature is performing the DDT or the system is in ADS Standby, to distinguish ADS Off from ADS Standby and be consistent with off mode definition in UN R171.

Proposal concerning “detected objects” and data element precision for the ADS regulation provisions on DSSAD.

Proposal concerning “detected objects” and data element precision.

Event data recorders shall record critical crash-related parameters shortly before, during and immediately after a collision, including vehicle speed, braking, position, tilt, and state of safety systems. Data shall be anonymised, protected against manipulation, operate on a closed-loop system, and be made available to national authorities only for accident research and analysis. Automated vehicles and fully automated vehicles shall comply with technical specifications for event data recorders. Discussion topics include whether recording requirements should be adapted for ADS-driven vehicles, whether ADS-specific data elements such as timestamp data should be recorded, and related issues.

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).

Proposal to remove the draft provisions concerning the approval of stability performance under UN R13 and UN R140 for ADS vehicles via demonstration under the safety case provisions of the forthcoming UN Regulation on ADS, and to remove bracket unintentionally retained in the original submission.
