Whereas:(1)

Regulation (EU) 2018/858 of the European Parliament and of the Council1 lays down
administrative provisions and technical requirements for the type-approval of all new
vehicles, systems, components and separate technical units, with a view to ensuring theproper functioning of the internal market and in order to offer a high level of safety andenvironmental performance.

(2)

This Regulation is a regulatory act for the purposes of the EU type-approval procedure laid
down by Regulation (EU) 2018/858. Therefore, Annex II to Regulation (EU) 2018/858
should be amended accordingly. The administrative provisions of Regulation(EU) 2018/858, including the provisions on corrective measures and penalties, are fully
applicable to this Regulation.

Over the past decades, developments in vehicle safety have contributed significantly to theoverall reduction in the number of road fatalities and severe injuries. However,
25 300 people died on Union roads in 2017, a figure that has remained constant in the last
four years. Moreover, 135 000 people are seriously injured in collisions every year1. The
Union should do its utmost to reduce or to eliminate accidents and injuries in roadtransport. In addition to safety measures to protect vehicle occupants, the implementationof specific measures to prevent fatalities and injuries of vulnerable road users, such as
cyclists and pedestrians, is needed to protect road users outside of the vehicle. Without new
initiatives on general road safety, the safety effects of the current approach will no longer
be able to off-set the effects of increasing traffic volumes. Therefore, the safety
performance of vehicles needs to be further improved as part of an integrated road safety
approach and in order to protect vulnerable road users better.

Type-approval provisions should ensure that motor vehicle performance levels are assessedin a repeatable and reproducible manner. Therefore, the technical requirements in thisRegulation only refer to pedestrians and cyclists, as only these presently exist as formallyharmonised testing target subjects. Besides pedestrians and cyclists, vulnerable road users,
in general, also include other non-motorised and motorised road users who might use
personal mobility solutions without protective bodywork. Moreover, current technology
creates a reasonable expectation that advanced systems will also react to other vulnerable
road users under normal driving conditions, despite not being specifically tested. The
technical requirements in this Regulation should be further adapted to technical progress
following an assessment and review process in order to cover all road users who use
personal mobility solutions without protective bodywork, such as scooters, self-balancing
vehicles and wheelchairs.

(5)Technical progress in the area of advanced vehicle safety systems offers new possibilities
for reducing casualty numbers. In order to minimise the number of severe injuries andfatalities, a set of new technologies needs to be introduced.

Within the context of Regulation (EC) No 661/2009 of the European Parliament and of theCouncil1, the Commission assessed the feasibility of extending the existing requirement inthat Regulation to install certain systems (for example, advanced emergency braking
systems and tyre pressure monitoring systems) in certain categories of vehicles so that it
applied to all vehicle categories. The Commission also assessed the technical andeconomic feasibility and market maturity of imposing a new requirement to install otheradvanced safety features. Based on those assessments, the Commission published a reportfor the European Parliament and the Council on 12 December 2016 entitled ‘Saving Lives:
Boosting Car Safety in the EU’. The Commission Staff Working Document accompanyingthat report identified and put forward 19 potential regulatory measures that would be
effective in further reducing the number of road accidents and road fatalities and injuries.

(7)

To ensure technology neutrality, the performance requirements should allow both direct
and indirect tyre pressure monitoring systems.

(8)

Advanced vehicle systems can be more effective in reducing fatalities, decreasing thenumber of road accidents and mitigating injuries and damage if they are designed to beconvenient for users. Therefore, vehicle manufacturers should do their utmost to ensurethat the systems and features provided for in this Regulation are developed in such a waythat supports the driver. The functioning of those systems and features and their limitations
should be explained in a clear and consumer-friendly manner in the motor vehicle’s user
instructions.

13 July 2009 concerning type-approval requirements for the general safety of motor
vehicles, their trailers and systems, components and separate technical units intended
therefor (OJ L 200, 31.7.2009, p. 1).

Safety features and warnings used in assisting driving should be easily perceivable byevery driver, including the elderly and persons with disabilities.

(10)

Advanced emergency braking systems, intelligent speed assistance, emergency
lane-keeping systems, driver drowsiness and attention warning, advanced driver distraction
warning and reversing detection are safety systems that have a high potential to reduce
casualty numbers considerably. In addition, some of those safety systems form the basis oftechnologies which will also be used for the deployment of automated vehicles. Any such
safety systems should function without the use of any kind of biometric information ofdrivers or passengers, including facial recognition. Therefore, harmonised rules and test
procedures for the type-approval of vehicles as regards those systems and for the
type-approval of those systems as separate technical units should be established at Unionlevel. The technological progress of those systems should be taken into account in every
evaluation of the existing legislation, in order to be future-proof, whilst strictly adhering to
the principles of privacy and data protection, and to reduce or eliminate accidents andinjuries in road transport. It is also necessary to ensure that those systems can be usedsafely throughout the life cycle of the vehicle.

It should be possible to switch off intelligent speed assistance, for instance, when a driver
experiences false warnings or inappropriate feedback as a result of inclement weather
conditions, temporarily conflicting road markings in construction zones, or misleading,defective or missing road signs. Such a switch-off feature should be under the control ofthe driver. It should allow for intelligent speed assistance to be switched off for as long asnecessary and to be easily switched back on by the driver. When the system is switched
off, information about the speed limit may be provided. The system should be always
active when switching the ignition on and the driver should always be made aware ofwhether the system is on or off.

(12)

It is widely recognised that safety-belts are one of the most important and effective vehicle
safety features. Safety-belt reminder systems therefore have the potential to further prevent
fatalities or mitigate injuries by increasing the safety-belt wearing rates across the Union.
For that reason, under Regulation (EC) No 661/2009 the safety-belt reminder system wasmade compulsory for the driver seat in all new passenger cars from 2014 in
implementation of United Nations (UN) Regulation No 16, which established the relevant
technical provisions. As a result of the amendment of that UN Regulation to take accountof technical progress, it is obligatory to fit all front and rear seats of M1 and N1 vehicles, aswell as all front seats of N2, N3, M2 and M3 vehicles, with safety-belt reminder systems
from 1 September 2019 for new types of motor vehicles and 1 September 2021 for all new
motor vehicles.

The introduction of event data recorders storing a range of crucial anonymised vehicle
data, accompanied by requirements for data range, accuracy, resolution and for its
collection, storage and retrievability over a short timeframe before, during and
immediately after collision (for example, triggered by the deployment of an airbag) is avaluable step in obtaining more accurate, in-depth accident data. All motor vehicles should
therefore be required to be equipped with such recorders. Those recorders should becapable of recording and storing data in such a way that the data can only be used by
Member States to conduct road safety analysis and assess the effectiveness of specificmeasures taken without the possibility of identifying the owner or the holder of a particularvehicle on the basis of the stored data.

Event data recorders should operate on a closed-loop system, in which the data stored isoverwritten, and which does not allow the vehicle or holder to be identified. In addition,
the driver drowsiness and attention warning or advanced driver distraction warning should
not continuously record nor retain any data other than what is necessary in relation to the
purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed within the closed-loopsystem. Furthermore, the processing of personal data collected through the 112-based eCall

Advanced emergency braking systems or emergency lane-keeping systems might not be
fully operational in some cases, in particular due to shortcomings in road infrastructure. In
those cases, the systems should deactivate themselves and give information about thedeactivation to the driver. If they do not deactivate automatically, it should be possible toswitch them off manually. Such deactivation should be temporary and should only last forthe period when the system is not fully operational. Drivers might also need to override
advanced emergency braking system or emergency lane keeping system where thefunctioning of the system could lead to greater risk or harm. This would ensure that thevehicles are under the driver’s control at all times. Nevertheless such systems could also
recognise instances where the driver is incapacitated and intervention by the system istherefore needed in order to prevent an accident being worse than it would otherwise be.

(16)

Regulation (EC) No 661/2009 exempted vans, sport utility vehicles (SUVs) andmulti-purpose vehicles (MPVs) from safety requirements due to seating height and vehicle
mass characteristics. Given the increased rate of market penetration of such vehicles (upfrom only 3 % in 1996 to 14 % in 2016) and the technological developments in post-crash
electric safety checks, those exemptions are outdated and unjustified. Therefore, theexemptions should be removed and the whole range of advanced vehicle system
requirements should be applied to those vehicles.

Regulation (EC) No 661/2009 achieved significant simplification of Union legislation byreplacing 38 Directives with equivalent UN Regulations that are mandatory under Council
Decision 97/836/EC1. In order to achieve further simplification, more Union rules should
be replaced with existing UN Regulations that apply in the Union on a compulsory basis.
Furthermore, the Commission should promote and support the on-going work at UN levelin order to establish, without any delay, and in accordance with the highest road safety
standards available, technical requirements for the type-approval of the vehicle safetysystems provided by this Regulation.

Historically, Union rules have limited the overall length of truck combinations, which
resulted in the typical cab-over-engine designs as they maximise the cargo space.
However, the high position of the driver led to an increased blind-spot area and poorer
direct visibility around the truck cab. This is a major factor in truck accidents involving
vulnerable road users. The number of casualties could be reduced significantly by
improving direct vision. Requirements should therefore be introduced to improve direct
vision to enhance the direct visibility of pedestrians, cyclists and other vulnerable road
users from the driver’s seat by reducing to the greatest possible extent the blind spots infront and to the side of the driver. The specificities of different categories of vehicles
should be taken into account.

(23)

Automated vehicles have the potential to make a huge contribution to reducing road
fatalities, given that more than 90 % of road accidents are estimated to result from somelevel of human error. As automated vehicles will gradually take over the tasks of thedriver, harmonised rules and technical requirements for automated vehicle systems,
including those regarding verifiable safety assurance for decision-making by automatedvehicles, should be adopted at Union level, while respecting the principle of technologicalneutrality, and promoted at international level in the framework of the UNECE’s World
Forum for Harmonization of Vehicle Regulations (WP.29).

Road users such as pedestrians and cyclists, as well as drivers of non-automated vehicles

Software modifications can significantly change vehicle functionalities. Harmonised rules
and technical requirements for software modifications should be established in line withthe type-approval procedures. Therefore, UN Regulations or other regulatory acts
regarding software update processes should be applied on a mandatory basis as soon as
possible after their entry into force. However, those security measures should notcompromise the obligations of the vehicle manufacturer to provide access tocomprehensive diagnostic information and in-vehicle data relevant to vehicle repair andmaintenance.

(28)

The Union should continue to promote the development of technical requirements for tyrenoise, rolling resistance and wet grip performance of tyres at the UN level. This is because
UN Regulation No 117 on uniform provisions concerning the approval of tyres with regard
to rolling sound emissions and/or to adhesion on wet surfaces and/or to rolling resistance1(‘UN Regulation No 117’) now contains these detailed provisions. The process of adapting
the requirements on tyres to take account of technical progress should be rapidly andambitiously continued at UN level, in particular to ensure that tyre performance is also
assessed at the end of a tyre’s life in its worn condition and to promote the idea that tyres
should meet the requirements throughout their life and not be replaced prematurely.
Existing requirements in Regulation (EC) No 661/2009 relating to tyre performance should
be replaced by equivalent UN Regulations.

Given that EU type-approvals granted in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 78/2009,
Regulation (EC) No 79/2009 or Regulation (EC) No 661/2009 and their implementing
measures are to be considered equivalent to those granted in accordance with thisRegulation, unless the relevant requirements are changed by this Regulation or until they
are modified by the delegated acts or implementing acts adopted pursuant to thisRegulation, transitional provisions are needed to ensure that such approvals are notinvalidated.

(33)

The dates for refusal to grant EU type-approval, refusal of vehicle registration andprohibition of the placing on the market or entry into service of components and separate
technical units should be laid down for each regulated item.

(34)

Since the objective of this Regulation, namely ensuring the proper functioning of theinternal market through the introduction of harmonised technical requirements concerning
the safety and environmental performance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and systems,
components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles cannot be sufficiently
achieved by the Member States and can therefore, by reason of its scale and effects, bebetter achieved at Union level, the Union may adopt measures in accordance with theprinciple of subsidiarity as set out in Article 5 of the Treaty on European Union. In
accordance with the principle of proportionality, as set out in that Article, this Regulation
does not go beyond what is necessary in order to achieve that objective.
