Proposal to clarify rounded-edge requirements for roof-opening roof devices.

Request for interpretation of UN R17 for testing of head restraints in cases where the head restraint is not mandatory in the vehicle category in question.

Proposal developed by the informal working group on protective helmets to introduce new categories of helmets and update provisions, including for sun visors. The new series would tentatively be phased in during 2022-2024.

Proposal to introduce an optional (on the choice of the manufacturer) test procedure for frontal airbags in combination with rearward facing child restraint systems in the rear seat to demonstrate that no deactivation of the airbag is needed.

Presentation in support of the proposal to allow an option for demonstration that an airbag deployment is safe in the presence of a rear-facing child restraint system in a rear seating position.

Proposal to remove restrictions on the scope of the Regulation to M₁ and N₁ vehicles, to provide appropriate transitional provisions and to make minor adaptations and clarifications to the existing requirements.

Proposal to expand the scope of the Regulation (to vehicles of category M₁ with a maximum permissible mass not exceeding 3500 kg and to vehicles of category N₁, to provide appropriate transitional provisions and to make minor adaptations and clarifications to the existing requirements.

Proposal to update the text of UN R100, particularly in line with GTR 20 on electric vehicle safety.

Proposal to introduce chest vertical acceleration (Az) criteria until such time as upper neck tension Force (Fz) and upper neck flexion moment (My) criteria can be established.

Updated proposal (based on document GRSP/2019/5) to specify a head restraint height between 720 mm and 830 mm including a new method for measuring the effective height of head restraints, use of the Biofidelic Rear Impact Device (BioRID II) test dummy, and to improve the overall text. This proposal also eliminates the backset measurement test procedure using the HRMD method.

Proposal to ensure pedestrian safety across the vehicle height variations that may be produced by active suspensions.

Information on the regulation of category L7 micro four-wheeled vehicles.

Proposal to expand the scope of the Regulation to cover vehicles of category M₁ with a total permissible mass not exceeding 3500 kg and to vehicles of category N₁ with a total permissible mass not exceeding 2500 kg, to provide transitional provisions (May 2022/May 2024) and to make minor adaptations and clarifications to the existing requirements.

Proposal to ensure pedestrian protection across the vehicle height variations that may be produced by an active suspension system.

Request for guidance in order to resolve conflicting interpretations of paragraph 7.1.4.2.2. The paragraphs reads, " The vertical component of the acceleration from the abdomen towards the head shall not exceed 30 g except during periods whose sum does not exceed 3 ms.” However, an explanatory note for Technical Services on performing the tests under Annex 15 adds, "The wording of this paragraph [7.1.4.2.2.] refers to accelerations representing tensile loads in the spine of the dummy.” Differing interpretations have resulted in a CRS being approved but then rejected during Conformity of Production review by a separate Technical Service.

Proposal to correct the cross-reference to paragraph 5.11. in paragraph 6.4.3.5. The text should refer to paragraph 5.12.

Proposal to amend document GRSP/2019/10. The proposal clarifies the way to apply and to understand GTR7 phase 2 static alternative provisions and aligns the area where the gap is measured to actual practice in UN R17 and FMVSS 202a which consider only gaps over a height of 540mm.
