Proposal to improve the readability of the text by using only the wording “run flat tyre”, mentioning the alternative wording “ self supporting tyre” in a note.

Proposals for earlier series of amendments those may be used in certain country
where R156-01 is required. The provisions regarding provision of information on hardware and software relevant to approval testing are moved to the section related to specifications and/or tests as instructed in R.E.3. and the amendment made by WP29-197-06 is reflected.

Proposal to insert paragraphs establishing references to Software Identification Number definitions in Consolidated Resolution R.E.3 Annex 7 para. 2, insert paragraphs requiring manufacturers to provide Technical Services with information on hardware and software influencing performance, insert paragraphs allowing vehicle manufacturers to apply for new approvals to differentiate software versions for registered vehicles from those for new vehicles with duplication of tests avoided where possible, amend production discontinuation provisions to clarify that production is not considered definitively discontinued if manufacturers intend to obtain subsequent extensions for software updates of registered vehicles, and amend approval communications to include additional information regarding software identification and software updates in UN Regulations 51, 64, 138, 141, 142 and 165, as presented in document GRBP-83-36 and implementing Revision 8 to Consolidated Resolution No. 3 (WP.29/2025/147).

Corrections to documents submitted by TF-AVRS and approved by GRBP amend terminology in UN R51.03 to harmonize bidirectional spelling, correct vehicle category references in UN R51.03 and UN R165 to reference category X only rather than non-existent category M1Y or category M, clarify in UN R64 that logical signals shall be transmitted to the ADS when an ADS feature is active, introduce references to specific ADS provisions in Annexes 5 and 7 of UN R138.02 and UN R165, add grammatical corrections to UN R141, and align UN R165 terminology with ADS regulation language.

Results of the review of proposals for UN Regulations R28, R51, R64, R138, R141, R142, and R165 regarding autonomous vehicle readiness. Key findings include: inconsistent Mass in Running Order definitions between R51 and R138 versus RE3; unclear special testing provisions in R64, R138, and R165; need for clarification on ADS optical and logical signal transition in R64; redundant full definitions from RE3 in multiple proposals should reference RE3 via footnote instead; inconsistent ADS activity terminology across R64, R141, and R165 should be standardized; incorrect Category Y references in R51 Table 2; and definition and spelling errors in R51, R138, R141, and R165.

The proposal adds Annex 5 on special provisions for testing vehicles equipped with an Automated Driving System (ADS) and adds definitions for ADS, Dynamic Driving Task, Category X and Y vehicles, logical signal, and Vehicle Master Control Switch. Amendments modify run-flat warning system requirements, braking performance tests, and tyre detection procedures to accommodate ADS-equipped vehicles.
