                              EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
This proposal concerns the installation of lighting and light-signalling devices
on two and three-wheel motor vehicles and forms part of the approval procedure
for said vehicles as covered by a proposal for a regulation (framework
regulation) sent by the Commission to the Council on 3 April 1991.
At issue in this instance are technical requirements applying to the
 installation of lighting and light-signalling devices on the vehicles concerned.
Together with the other components and characteristics provided for in Annex I
to the proposal for a framework directive, these are requirements which must be
met if said vehicles are to be approved and placed on the Community market.
 In drawing up this proposal the Commission has taken extensive account of the
 requirements adopted by the United Nations' Economic Commission for Europe in
 its Regulations Nos 53 and 74 on, respectively, motor cycles and mopeds.
 Depending on the category of two or three-wheel vehicle the requirements set out
 in this proposal concern the definition of mandatory or optional  lighting and
 light-signalling devices and, for each of those devices, the number,
 installation layout, geometric visibility, alignment, and incorporation with
 other devices and warning lamps.

      flashing Iight.
9.    No red light shall be visible towards the front and no white light
      other than that from any reversing lamp fitted shall be visible
      towards the rear. This situation shall be checked as follows (see
      drawings according to the types of two or three-wheel vehicles set
      out in Appendices 1 to Annexes II to VI :
9.1   for the visibility of a  red light towards the front: there shall
      be no direct visibility  of a red light if viewed by an observer
      moving within Zone 1 in  a transverse plane situated 25 m in front
      of the foremost part of  the vehicle;
 9.2  for the visibility of a white light towards the rear: there
      must be no direct visibility of a white light if viewed by an
      observer moving within Zone 2 in a transverse plane situated 25 m
      behind the rearmost part of the vehicle;
 ---pagebreak---                               - 13 -
9.3   Zones 1 and 2, as seen by the observer, are limited in their
      respective planes as follows:
9.3.1 as regards height, two horizontal planes which are 1 and 2.2 m
      respectively above the ground;
9.3.2 as regards width, by two vertical planes making an angle of 15°
      towards the front and rear respectively, and outside the vehicle
      by reference to the median longitudinal plane of the vehicle.
      These planes contain, respectively, the vertical lines of
      intersection of the vertical planes parallel to the longitudinal
      median plane of the vehicle and representing its overall width,
      and of the transverse planes representing the overall length of
      the vehicle.
10.   The electrical connections shall be such that the front (side)
       lamp, the dipped-beam headlamp, the rear position (side) lap and
      the rear registration plate lamp can only be switched on and off
      simultaneously.
 11.   In the absence of specific requirements, the electrical
      connections shall be such that the main-beam headlamp, the
      dipped-beam headlamp and the fog lamp can only be switched on when
      the lamps referred to in 10 above have also been switched on.
      This requirement shall not apply, however, to main-beam or
      dipped-beam headlamps when their optjcal warnings consist of the

                longitudinal plane of the vehicle if there is a single retro
               reflector or, if there are two retro reflectors, they shall be
               symmetrical to the median longitudinal plane of the vehicle. In
               the case of a vehicle with two rear retro reflectors, the edges of
               the illuminating surface furthest from the median longitudinal
               plane of the vehicle shall not be more than 400 mm from the
               outermost part of the vehicle. The internal edges of the retro
               reflectors shall be at least 500 mm apart.
               This distance may be reduced to 400 mm if the maximum width of the
               vehicle is less than 1 300 mm.
6.12.3.2       Height: 250 mm minimum, 900 mm maximum above the ground;
6.12.3.3       Length: at the rear of the vehicle.
6.12.4         Geometric visibility
               Horizontal angle: 30° to the left and to the right.
               Vertical angle : 15° above and below the horizontal. However,
               the vertical angle below the horizontal may be reduced to 5° if
               the height of the retro reflector is less than 750 mm.
6.12.5         Alignment: to the rear.
6.12.6         May be grouped with any other lamp.
6.12.7         Other requirements: the illuminating surface of the retro
                reflector may have parts in common with any other red lamp
               situated at the rear.
 (1)   In accordance with the classification set out in Directive 76/757/EEC on
       the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to retro
       reflectors for motor vehicles and their trailers.

7, Financial impact on appropriations for operations (Part B of the budget)
        Nil, except where all of the DG II I allocation is used up on Part A of
        the budget; this would call for additional financing under heading
        B8-530 (Completing the internal market - support expenditure).
8. What anti-fraud measures are planned in the proposal for the operation?
        Ordinary monitoring of the commitee meetings.
            Section 2: administrative expenditure (Part A of the budget)
This section of the financial statement must be sent to DG IX for an opinion.

 3 April 1991) (the framework regulation) put expenditure involving the
 advisory Committee on the adaptation to technical progress of the regulations
 concerning the two or three-wheel vehicle sector, set up by Article 16 of the
 proposal, at an estimated ECU 16 860 per year from 1994 onwards. This sum
 includes expenditure relating to the procedures for the adaptation to
 technical progress of all the specific regulations provided for in Annex I to
 the framework regulation.
