Agricultural vehicle couplings: Proposal for a new UN Regulation
Proposal for a new UN Regulation on uniform provisions concerning the approval of mechanical coupling components of combinations of agricultural vehicles. [Regulation adopted with Australia and Japan abstaining.]
This proposal (WP.29/2018/69) was adopted by the World Forum. Thirty-eight Contracting Parties to the 1958 Agreement were present for the vote by AC.1. Thirty-eight voted in favor with zero against and zero abstaining.
Proposal to remove the clause in annex 6 that stipulates different technical requirements for mechanical couplings to be used on agricultural tractors with a maximum speed in excess of 60 km/h in order to promote a common understanding of the technical requirements (i.e., reduce differences due to divergent interpretations of the clause).
