1. augment the provisions to address the needs of persons with reduced mobility by improving accommodations for wheelchair users and for persons who are visually and/or hearing impaired, and
2. replace the prohibition against the use of reinforced insulation for trolleybus circuits directly connected to the overhead power line with a requirement that such circuits shall be double insulated.

Proposal to harmonize the requirements on Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) and/or Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) vehicles of UN Regulation No. 110 with those of the international standard ISO 11439:2013.

Proposal to replace the term “roof” with the term “ceiling” throughout the text pursuant to Supplement 1 to the 02 series of amendments which modified the definition of “interior compartment” (previously “passenger compartment”) in paragraph 2.2. The definition replaced the term “roof” by “ceiling” in reference to the upper boundary surface of the compartment definition; however, the change in terminology was not reflected throughout the rest of the text. This proposal corrects that omission.

Proposal to apply footnote ¹⁸ to the symbol for tell-tale No. 1 (master lighting switch) in order to simplify the treatment of colour changes of tell-tales. Footnote ¹⁸ specifies "“Symbol may be shown in other colours than specified in column 5 in order to convey different meanings according to the general colour coding as proposed in paragraph 5. of ISO 2575-2004.” This proposal clarifies the existing understanding of the intent of the regulation and in particular addresses concerns over interpretation where tell-tales Nos. 1 and 19 have been combined.

Footnote ¹⁸ specifies "“Symbol may be shown in other colours than specified in column 5 in order to convey different meanings according to the general colour coding as proposed in paragraph 5. of ISO 2575-2004.” This proposal clarifies the existing understanding of the intent of the regulation and in particular addresses concerns over interpretation where tell-tales Nos. 1 and 19 have been combined.

Proposal to exempt all heaters located outside the passenger compartment and using water as a transfer medium from the requirements of the annexes on air quality and temperature. The current text only exempts combustion heaters.

Alternative solution from OICA to the German proposal GRSG/2017/16 regarding visibility/access requirements for PRV/PRD-related components in order to improve maintenance and reduce the risk of critical failures of pressure relief devices. The proposal also proposes amending provisions of the ageing test in Annex 15 in response to concerns over failures of rubber hoses.

In the absence of complete harmonization with ISO 11439, this proposal recommends that Table 6.4 of UN R110 should be amended by the following for CNG-1 designs:

1. Delete A.17, A.25, and A.7 since they do not match the tests specified in paragraph 7.5 on Cylinder design qualification tests
2. Add A.15 and A.6 since they do match the tests specified in paragraph 7.5 on Cylinder design qualification tests
3. Add A.24 because paragraph 6.9 on Fire protection requires all PRDs on all cylinder types to comply with A.24.

Proposal to clarify the test requirements in alignment with the French text of the regulation by amending paragraph 5.10 to read “Tanks shall be installed in such a way as to be protected from the consequences of a collision to the front or the rear of the vehicle; there shall be no protruding parts, sharp edges, etc. near nearby all around the tank tanks.” The proposal aims to clarify the inspection of potentially protruding parts around the tanks in order to ensure their integrity in the event of a collision.

Proposal to amend geometrical criteria (dimensions and distances between lateral protection devices) and installation provisions for lateral protection barriers in order to improve their performance with regard to vulnerable road users. The proposal would

1. increase the maximum distance between lateral rails from 300 mm to 400 mm
2. redefine the limits for the lower edge from “550 mm above the ground” to definition via an isosceles triangle formed by lines drawn at 8° from the ground contact points of the vehicle tires intersecting at point “I” above the road surface where the maximum limit “I” is between 350-450 mm
3. define the upper edge as from 450 mm rather than 300 mm maximum from the vehicle structure or maximum height of the upper edge above the ground from 950 mm to 850 mm
4. update the horizontal static force requirement for lateral protection devices to 3 kN and the deflection under load criteria to 90 mm over the rearmost 250 mm of the device and 450 mm over the remainder of the device.

Proposal pursuant to discussions on the application of footnote ¹⁸ under Table 1 concerning tell-tale symbols and the use of colours to convey different meanings. ISO standard 2575-2004, para. 5.1. allows for the use of different colours to convey a change in the operating condition. This proposal would remove the current footnote ¹⁸ text and application of the footnote to telltales 2, 9-12, and 19 pending a decision on the proposal to apply a revised footnote to the master lighting switch (tell-tale 1). Paragraph 5.4.1.1. of UN R121 references ISO 2575-2004 which was developed to simplify the application of UN R121 when colour changes are adopted in other UN Regulations; however, OICA submits that the footnote which references ISO 2575-2004 in relation to specific lighting devices or systems creates a degree of confusion. (If approved, this proposal would likely impact Supplement 3 to the 01 series rather than Supplement 2 given that WP.29 at its November 2017 session adopted the proposal to add a telltale and symbols for “Accident Emergency Call System (AECS)” and to align UN R121 with the 07 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 16 as Supplement 2 to the 01 series.)

Proposal to clarify that overlays may only be used to convey “safety-related rearward vision information.” The proposal addresses confusion regarding circumstances under which the provision of information through overlays is permissible. The proposal also amends the French text. The overall proposal aims to make clear that overlays may convey safety information regarding the rearward environment of the vehicle and are not necessarily limited only to when the vehicle is moving in reverse. The proposal also aims to restrict the information to rear-vision safety. Other information, not related to the rear view, should never appear within the defined field of view.

Proposal to correct Revision 2 of UN R55 to align with the text of Supplement 04 to 01 series of amendments. This proposal removes a subparagraph under paragraph 13.1 that should not have been included in the Revision.

Proposal to amend Annex 7 (laminated-glass panes), inserting a new paragraph 6. to allow optional 2,260 g ball test and headform test for laminated-glass panes. The proposal aims to amend UN R43 to enable the approval of the laminated-glass panes with improved mechanical properties, especially as designed for front, exterior, forward-facing glazing of the upper deck of a double-deck vehicle.

Revised proposal from OICA pursuant to comments received during the previous GRRF session to

1. exempt cases where the driver has temporarily deactivated the speed limiter from the warning requirement for excess speed in in order to reduce driver distraction
2. introduce throttle control via adjustment of the accelerator pedal position
3. to correct an editorial error in paras. 5.2.5.4.2. and 21.2.5.4.2.

The European Agreement Concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road (ADR) requires vehicles to be equipped with a speed limitation device compliant with UN R89. UN R89 refers to speed limitation devices (SLD) and speed limitation functions (SLR) (i.e., aims to be technologically neutral). Russia requests GRRF confirmation that compliance with UN R89 can be achieved through either an SLD or SLF.

Annex 1 of UN R55 concerns the type approval communication form. Item 9.3. requires information “For Class A mechanical coupling devices or components, including towing brackets”. Poland proposes to add “if fitted” to the description in order to avoid interpretations that brackets must be part of the approval (i.e., the approval may concern the coupling ball without additional attachments).

Proposal to delete Appendix 5 and thereby end static testing as a compliance option. In addition, this proposal amends Appendix 1 by reducing the forward movement of the head of the manikin to 1.2 m in alignment with UN Regulation No. 14. Further, the proposal would limit the movement of the seat anchorages to 100 mm to ensure a minimum residual space for the passenger between the seats. Lastly, to ensure that seat fixations are reliably fastened after relocation, the proposal would require the necessary information to be marked directly on the seat and provided in the owner’s manual.

Proposal to clarify the text of document GRSG/2018/7 submitted to enable the approval of the laminated-glass panes with improved mechanical properties, especially as designed for front, exterior, forward-facing glazing of the upper deck of a double-deck vehicle. The proposal would amend Annex 7 (laminated-glass panes), inserting a new paragraph 6. to allow optional 2,260 g ball test and headform test for laminated-glass panes.

Proposal to align Annex 11 with Annex 3 following the removal of paragraphs in the latter regarding the marking of a vehicle with respect to the mass of baggage (done via Corrigendum 1 to Revision 6). This proposal would delete the same requirements (paragraphs 3.3.1.2.1, 3.3.1.2.2., 3.3.1.2.2.1. and 3.3.1.2.2.2) from Annex 11.

Italy research on type CNG4 cylinders in support of the proposal to require that covers be removed in cases where ogive protective covers are fitted to a cylinder before conducting the impact damage (drop) test (document GRSG/2017/29).

Proposal to allow the use of a generator fueled by the vehicle gaseous fuel system that provides electricity to run accessories (e.g., overnight power in sleeper cabs, to maintain battery charge during high electrical power use with loading or lifting equipment). This proposal would allow for the use of LNG/CNG from vehicle fuel tanks and thereby reduce the potential need to vent gas into the air in response to pressure buildup due to warming over time by using the gas to power other devices and equipment.

The target of the meeting was to define essential periodic inspection requirements to be respected when installing gaseous fuel components into a vehicle, and to clarify the material requirements for components inside the LPG tank. The work addressed UN R67 and UN R110. No further meetings are planned at this time.

Proposal developed by the Gas-fueled Vehicle Regulations Task Force to facilitate periodic inspections of gas containers through better visibility. In addition, Germany suggests adding that paragraph to allow a Contracting Party or a regional organization of Contacting Parties like the EU to refuse national or regional type-approval and to refuse first registration of a vehicle type affected by the changes introduced by the 02 series of amendments but not meeting those stipulations. Paragraph 22.13 is an addition to paragraph 22.9. giving more stress to aspects of national and regional type-approval and of first registration of vehicles.

Final report on a Washington State Transit Insurance Pool (WSTIP) pilot program to assess the Rosco/Mobileye Shield+ system collision avoidance warning system (CAWS) specifically designed for transit buses. This project involved field testing and evaluation of the CAWS in revenue service over a three-month period. The system provides alerts and warnings to the bus driver for the following conditions that could lead to a collision:

1. changing lanes without activating a turn signal (lane departure warning was disabled for this pilot),
2. exceeding posted speed limit,
3. monitoring headway with the vehicle leading the bus,
4. forward vehicle collision warning, and
5. pedestrian or cyclist collision warning in front of, or alongside the bus.

Update on Transport Canada VRU collision research.

Proposal to clarify the references to UN R10 in UN R89. This was part of a collective amendment proposal concerning (in addition to UN R89) UN R13, UN R13-H, UN R79; UN R130 and UN R131. Proposal also to

1. exempt cases where the driver has temporarily deactivated the speed limiter from the warning requirement for excess speed in in order to reduce driver distraction
2. introduce throttle control via adjustment of the accelerator pedal position
3. to correct an editorial error in paras. 5.2.5.4.2. and 21.2.5.4.2.

Proposal to enable to approval of vehicles equipped with mechanisms other than platforms intended to assist access by persons with reduced mobility.

Proposal to delete the reference to visual inspection under the support straps of the cylinders from the text under consideration. Such inspection would require dismantling of the cylinder installations which would contravene the consensus decision to avoid such exhaustive dismantling.

Proposal to amend and clarify the need for a gas flow adjuster under UN R110 with regard to the use of carburetors and fuel injectors. A gas flow adjuster is not necessary when an electronic fuel injection system manages the air/fuel mixture and therefore should be removed from paragraph 18.3.1. An adjuster is needed when air/fuel mixture runs via a carburetor and therefore should be added to paragraph 18.3.2.

Proposal to separate requirements for vehicle immobilizers into a new UN Regulation (from UN R116) in order to facilitate the inclusion of anti-theft regulations in UN R0 on whole vehicle type approvals.

Proposal to clarify that anti-theft-related vehicle components such as keys are not subject to the environmental tests (section 6.4.) of UN R116 which were established for components embedded in the vehicle.

Proposal to remove references to European radio frequency standards (paragraphs 6.2.3., 7.2.3. and 8.2.2.). Telecommunications devices must meet requirements specific to local markets. Therefore, the references to standards specific to European markets (but not other markets) fall outside the purview of UN Regulations.

In the absence of complete harmonization with ISO 11439, this proposal recommends that Table 6.4 of UN R110 should be amended by the following for CNG-1 designs:

1. Delete A.17, A.25, and A.7 since they do not match the tests specified in paragraph 7.5 on Cylinder design qualification tests
2. Add A.15 and A.6 since they do match the tests specified in paragraph 7.5 on Cylinder design qualification tests
3. Add A.24 because paragraph 6.9 on Fire protection requires all PRDs on all cylinder types to comply with A.24.

Proposal to clarify the test requirements in alignment with the French text of the regulation by amending paragraph 5.10 to read “Tanks shall be installed in such a way as to be protected from the consequences of a collision to the front or the rear of the vehicle.
