Proposal to amend UN R10 to enable application to Automated Driving System (ADS) vehicles, including new paragraphs defining ADS requirements, test configurations, and immunity-related functions. Changes address vehicles without drivers or manual controls, establish ADS test procedures for laboratory environments, and specify equipment operation during testing. Amendments cover electromagnetic compatibility testing requirements, failure criteria, and documentation standards for ADS-equipped vehicles.

TF-AVRS screened UN Regulations for automated vehicle application, focusing on UN R83 and UN R154. Changes enable automated driving system vehicles to perform driver-conducted tests like coast-down tests and roller bench cycles. Modifications include defining vehicle users as drivers or ADS users, adjusting driver mass calculations for X and Y categories, and updating testing mode terminology. TF-AVRS proposes amendments to 17 UN Regulations and seeks guidance on addressing remaining topics.

Proposal to add retrieval of DSSAD time-stamp data elements recorded for at least the last 30 seconds before the last setting of the event flag “Event Data Recorder (EDR) trigger input” alongside EDR data through the same interface, add provisions for retrieval when no such event occurs within the last 30 seconds, add provisions to replace date and time with relative time information when required by national or regional law, and add detected collision by Automated Driving System as an EDR trigger for UN R160 and UN R169.

This Supplement proposes to update UN R154 to accommodate vehicles fitted with Automated Driving Systems (ADS), specifically categories X and Y. Amendments include new definitions for ADS-related terms, modifications to testing procedures, and updated references to vehicle construction standards. Driver-related systems are renamed to account for vehicles without human drivers. Special provisions establish requirements for ADS road load determination and testing modes, while messaging systems are adapted to send signals to ADS instead of or in addition to driver notifications.

Proposal to update UN R49 to accommodate Automated Driving Systems (ADS). The supplement modifies definitions, mass calculations, warning systems, and testing procedures to apply to vehicles without human drivers. References to drivers are replaced with “vehicle user” terminology, and special provisions are added for ADS-equipped vehicles in testing and operational requirements.
