OICA comments and concerns regarding the generally accepted proposal for the definition of the bumper test area for use with the Flex-PLI lower leg impactor. The document raises issues concerning limitations of the test procedure and notes that the new requirements would have a significant impact on bumper design such that the transitional period for implementation should be 2019 to allow for a full vehicle development cycle.

Further refinements from the European Commission to the proposal to amend the bumper test area procedures under the pedestrian safety GTR.

Proposal to introduce provisions for “deployable pedestrian protection systems in the bonnet area” (e.g., active hood systems where a pedestrian impact triggers tge hood release to allow for greater impact absorption and exterior frontal airbags).
