| EDR/DSSAD informal group status report to GRSG |
| Reference Number: GRSG-131-14 |
|
The IWG on EDR/DSSAD developed draft proposals for Event Data Recorder for conventional and automated/autonomous vehicles and Data Storage System for Automated Driving. Completed work includes UN R160 on light duty vehicle EDR, UN R169 on heavy duty vehicle EDR, and DSSAD requirements. Current activities address EDR Step 2 and DSSAD Phase 2. The IWG resolved assessment subjectiveness for vehicles with maximum mass up to 12t through a proposed Supplement 2 to UN R169. |

| ADS guidance and interpretation document: Proposal to amend ADS-20-12 |
| Reference Number: ADS-20-14 |
|
Proposal to amend ADS-20-12 (consolidated guidance document). The ADS shall have strategies to detect and respond to instructions from road safety agents. For ADSF-1, this allows transfer of control to the fallback user. Manufacturers may use non-ADS strategies including remote intervention or permitting the road safety agent to drive. Examples of instructions include pull over, give way, stop after collision, move out of way, avoid specific road, and not overtake. Instructions may be issued via lights, sirens, audio messages, written signs, or light bar messages. |
