Establishment of new categories for automatically commanded steering function (ACSF): Categories A, B1, B2, C, D and E;
Wording for requirements of Category A (incl. remote parking RCP), and Category B1.
During its 8th meeting (Stockholm), the ACSF informal group decided that all functions to “assist the avoidance of a collision” would be excluded from the definition of “Corrective Steering Function”. ACSF decided to establish a new definition for “Emergency Steering Functions (ESF)” with specific requirements. The intention was to draft this definition during a second phase effort through which requirements for ACSF categories beyond B1 will be established. In order to enable the approval of ESF systems critical to road safety, OICA has prepared this proposal for an ESF definition and simple requirements based upon provisions for Complex Electronics (CEL) in Annex 6. A footnote has also been added to define the specific conditions for the approval of these systems, until uniform provisions are defined by the ACSF informal group.
Justification for an acceleration greater than 1.0 m/s² under document GRRF-82-08 (CSF)
Reference Number: GRRF-82-14
In order to enhance the safety of B1 corrective steering functions (by reducing the probability of driver over-reliance and misunderstanding of system limitations), OICA proposes a minimum value of 0.8 m/s2 for maximum lateral acceleration in place of the draft 1 m/s2 for the speed range between 100-130 km/h for M1 and N1 vehicles. OICA believes that this would ensure that a system is capable under all conditions of generating the required minimum acceleration.
Request for authorization to develop amendments to GTR No. 3 in order to:
align GTR 3 with Supplement 3 to the 03 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 78 adopted at June 169/WP.29 (electromagnetic compatibility requirements for ABS, application of ABS provisions to three-wheelers, installation of emergency stop signal) and
clarify the possibility to install a means to disable the ABS function (‘ABS Switch’) under certain conditions.
Consolidated draft amendment to UN R79 with regard to corrective steering functions (CSF), including test requirements
Reference Number: ACSF-08-11/Rev.1
UN R79 amendment proposal to introduce provisions for “corrective steering functions” as a separate category of steering system from automatically commanded steering functions (ACSF). Corrective Steering Function (CSF) means the control function within an electronic control system whereby, for a limited duration, changes to the steering angle of one or more wheels may result from the automatic evaluation of signals initiated on-board the vehicle.
Proposed changes to the draft amendments to UN R79 concerning ACSF B1 systems. The proposed new wording for the triggering condition of the warning (“any front tyre of the vehicle is crossing the lane marking”) is technically more specific than the original (“the vehicle is going to leave the lane”). The use of a haptic signal as an alternative to the acoustic signal achieves the goal pursued by Germany. This proposal is consistent with the warning strategy of AEBS specified in UN R131. In the case of M2 M3 N2 N3 vehicle categories, it is proposed to take as a base the requirements specified in UN R130 LDWS regulation, which achieves the goal.

Proposal to amend provisions on electronic stability control warnings under braking regulations to allow for activation of the ESC visual warning during a stability-assistance intervention of an electronic steering control. The aim is to avoid separate requirements for brake-actuated and steering-actuated stability assistance that would lead to two visual warnings where only one is appropriate.
Proposal to include under the complex electronics annex of UN R79, if only as an interim measure, provisions for the approval of automated systems that bring a vehicle safely to a stop in the event of driver incapacitation.
The Netherlands and Sweden note strongly urging consideration of system safety and software assessment issues before proceeding with approval procedures for Category B2 and/or E ACSF, including a discussion of the role, if any, of ISO 26262 under Annex 6.
