       Introduction

       The intention of this Regulation is to establish uniform provisions for Advanced Emergency Braking Systems (AEBS) fitted to motor vehicles of the Categories M1 and N1 primarily used within urban driving conditions.

       The system shall automatically detect an imminent forward collision, provide the driver with an appropriate warning and activate the vehicle braking system to decelerate the vehicle with the purpose of avoiding or mitigating the severity of a collision in the event that the driver does not respond to the warning.

       In the case of a failure in the system, the safe operation of the vehicle shall not be endangered.

       During any action taken by the system, the driver can, at any time through a conscious action, e.g. by a steering action or an accelerator kick-down, take control and override the system.

       This Regulation cannot cover all the traffic conditions and infrastructure features in the type-approval process; this Regulation recognises that the performances required in this Regulation cannot be achieved in all conditions (vehicle condition, road adhesion, weather conditions, deteriorated road infrastructure and traffic scenarios etc. may affect the system performances). Actual conditions and features in the real world should not result in false warnings or false braking to the extent that they encourage the driver to switch the system off.

       The Regulation provides the requirements
