Adaptation of ISO 13406-2 to camera-monitor systems for vehicle rear vision, proposing a visual inspection for bright and stuck pixels on the monitor screen.

Proposal to regulate the discharge direction of pressure relief devices (PRD) on CNG containers in response to a fire accident in the Netherlands in which the PRD produced a long horizontal jet flame for several minutes posing a risk to other road users and surrounding buildings.

Presentation opposing static testing of mechanical couplings for agricultural tractors.

Comments on a Swedish proposal to require an indicator within the operator’s field of vision to confirm whether safety latches are engaged and the system fully locked (or not).

Russian comments and proposals to modify the proposal to amend Annex 12 of the regulation to align its safety prescriptions for trolley buses with current electrical standards.

European Commission proposals for changes to the text of the automatic emergency call systems/devices regulation under development. These changes focus mainly on the use of global navigation satellite systems and do not represent an endorsement of the rest of the text.

European Commission position stressing its requirement that the proposed automatic emergency call system regulation cover and include the EGNOS (EU Satellite Augmentation system) and Galileo (the EU global navigation satellite system).

Proposal from the informal group secretary to add classes of emergency call devices to the draft regulation. The three classes proposed would address bandwidth variations (e.g., GSM 900, GSM 1800, UMTS 900, UMTS 2100, UMTS 1700/2100, UMTS 1900) and permit authorities to limit their acceptance of type approvals to particular classes.

OICA proposals for the test and measurement procedures to be undertaken to assess the post-collision (i.e., following the frontal impact or side impact testing under UN Regulations Nos. 94 and 95) functioning of an automatic emergency call device.

Proposal to clarify restrictions on the application of an RUPS according to specific vehicle chassis characteristics (e.g., stiffness, profile dimensions) under Annex 1 (item 9) the test set-up Annex 1 item 9 and to adapt the test procedure of Annex 5 (paragraph 1.1.3.) accordingly by the use of representative side rails. The proposal would also specify that the device used to distribute the test force over the stated flat surface be connected to the force actuator through a swivel joint since a wholly rigid set up can result in very different and unintended outcomes.

In document GRSG/2013/29, the AEGPL proposed to introduce new provisions into Regulation No. 67 for preventing the flow of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) into the petrol or diesel tank, and vice versa in order to address a potential safety risk in bi-fuel or dual-fuel vehicles. At the 105th GRSG session, Germany requested a more detailed test procedure. Therefore, this proposal responds to the German request, improves certain descriptions of requirements, and provides comments to justify the various provisions.

Proposal by the IGPG working group to introduce provisions for plastic glazing for windscreens and laminated plastic panes other than windscreens into UN Regulation No. 43, superseding document GRSG-104-43.

Proposal to modify document GRSG/2014/5 which would amend the current transitional provisions of UN Regulation No. 107in order to ensure the validity of the preceding series of amendments to UN R107 for vehicles not impacted by the 05 series (mandating temperature alarm systems in certain bus compartments not directly visible to bus occupants). This proposal would change the proposed language in order to clarify that vehicles not affected by the 05 Series of amendments can continue to be approved with no modification to their markings, and that extensions to the approvals for these vehicles can continue to be granted.

Proposal to clarify that an “overnight locking system” referred to in the proposed amendment to paragraph 2.41 is not one intended to be operated by passengers from inside the vehicle.

Note to open a discussion concerning the gas-cylinder periodic inspection requirements of Annex 3 of UN R110.

Draft report from the expert group working on a new regulation to govern approvals of in-vehicle automated emergency call devices to the Working Party on General Safety.
