Following the publication of Amendment 1 to United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UN ECE) Global Technical Regulation No. 13 on hydrogen and fuel cell vehicles, an equivalent set of amendments to the UN ECE Regulation on hydrogen fuelled vehicles, UN ECE Regulation No. 134, were developed to ensure alignment and consistency between the two Regulations.

European Commission Requests Comments on a Proposed EU Regulation Covering Event Data Recorders for Heavy Duty Motor Vehicles
On May 21, 2024, the European Commission published a draft Regulation specifying the technical requirements and test procedures for Event Data Recorders (EDR's) fitted to heavy duty motor vehicles for public comment. The mandatory fitment of Event Data Recorders (EDR's) to heavy duty motor vehicles is one of the new safety features required by (EU) 2019/2144 (more commonly referred to as General Safety Regulation 2 or GSR 2). As specified in (EU) 2019/2144, from January 7, 2026, the fitment of an EDR becomes mandatory for all new types of M2, M3, N2 and N3 category vehicle (i.e. buses, coaches, heavy trucks and tractor units) and, from January 7, 2029, the fitment of an EDR will become mandatory for all new vehicles falling into those categories.
