Presentation on NHTSA defect investigations into sunroof breakage incidents since 2004.

WP.29 adoption of the new IWVTA regulation (UN Regulation No. 0) is anticipated for March 2017 with an entry-into-force the following October. This initial regulation (00 series of amendments) will include UN Regulations as they stand prior to September 2, 2017. However, a number of these regulations contain transitional provisions such that new versions will enter into force during the 12 months following this cut-off date. Therefore, this document (updated from the earlier version) proposes a list of such regulations that would be included in the 01 series of amendments to UN R0 to be submitted for adoption by WP.29 in November 2017. In concept, UN R0 would be updated with these “upgraded” versions of the UN Regulations.

Proposal to require the installation of a message routing function (per ISO 11992) on trailers that are:

• equipped with more than one brake electronic control unit,
• equipped with an electric control, and
• towing a trailer.

Proposal to harmonize the Russian text with the English-language version of the regulation.

Proposal to define an exemption for handles from “residual/survival space” intrusion requirements for vehicle spaces not intended for occupants. Handles and handholds used to assist passengers in entering and exiting a bus are located outside of passenger seating and standing areas where OICA argues that they do not present a danger; however, the current rollover testing provisions could result in their inclusion in the area defined as “residual/survival space” where any intrusion is prohibited.

Proposal prepared by the UNECE secretariat to align the provisions of UN Regulation No. 105 with those of the new 2017 edition of the European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road (ADR).
