In Asia, Australia, and Central and South America, legislation is being prepared and countries are writing laws and regulations based primarily on those issued by the UN. The international harmonization of standards, including uniform standards for the whole world (called Global Technical Regulations (GTRs)), is now being promoted as well.  \n2. 1. Japan  \nTo develop the mutual recognition of certification atthe level of devices and components which based on the UN Agreement on the Mutual Recognition of Type Approval or Vehicles into a system for the mutual recognition of whole vehicle type approval, Japan has stepped up the pace of deliberations and activities aimed at preparing a domestic legal framework.  \nFor vehicle (bus, truck, and trailer) braking systems, the mandatory installation of vehicle stability control systems on some vehicles, of antilock brake systems (ABS) on all vehicles and the introduction of requirements for the conﬁguration and identiﬁcation of steering gear are adopted.  \nMeasures to combat global warming are critical and continuous environmental issues, and the implementation of measures to increase the use of biofuels, the issuance of automotive fuel economy standards for 2020, and policies such as tax rebates to encourage the widespread use of vehicles compliant with those standards are all being actively examined.  \nA study of the issues involved in the adoption of the Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Procedure  \n(WLTP) in Japan has also begun.  \n2. 2. The U.S. and Canada  \nThe economy showed signs of recovery thanks to the easing of monetary policy that followed the global ﬁnancial crisis, and sales of vehicles in the U.S. rose 7.6% compared to the previous year, but the revision of regulations proceeded at a snail＇s pace.  \nOverall, work on safety measures moved slowly, with very few issues making it through from draft proposal to ﬁnal issuance.  \nThe Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is set to adopt the Tier 3 regulations which are strengthening of the current federal Tier 2 regulations in April 2014. The California Air Resources Board (CARB) oﬃcially issued its on-board diagnostics (OBD) regulations for heavyduty vehicles in September 2013, and is also working on revising the OBD regulations applying to the previously issued LEV III regulations for light- and medium-duty vehicles.  \nHarmonizing with the U.S., Canada has decided to apply new fuel consumption labels based on the 5-cycle test methodology beginning with the 2016 model year.  \nIn terms of recycling and substances of environmental concern (SOCs), there was no federal legislation-based strengthening of the regulations as no amendment was made to the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) . However, the EPA is promulgating signiﬁcant new use rules (SNURs) to manage and restrict hundreds of chemical substances of concern, and steady progress is being made on strengthening regulations on chemical substances. A proposal extending regulation to substances within products for brominated ﬂame retardants such as decaBDE and HBCD has also been put forth, paving the way for the future regulation of products.  \n2. 3. Europe  \nThe introduction of the WLTP and of the Real Driving Emissions (RDE) regulation, as well as a revision of the evaporative emissions test method, are being examined  \nCopyright© 2014 Society of Automotive Engineers of Japan, Inc. All rights reserved  \nwith the goal of synchronization with the implementation of the Euro 6c regulations in September 2017. For the RDE, a monitoring phase preceding the regulation is being assessed and could be adopted as early as 2014.  \nThe phase-in of CO2 regulations for light passenger vehi","cbCaiamopCfgWmti","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiamopCfgWmti","pdf",348421,15,"English","# 1 Introduction\n# 2 Japan\n## Vehicle safety and environmental measures\n# 2.2 The U.S. and Canada\n## Safety, emissions, OBD, and chemicals\n# 2.3 Europe\n## WLTP, RDE, and CO2 regulations\n# 2.4 Other regions\n## China, Taiwan, and South Korea","[{\"question\":\"What global trends are driving stronger automobile and technical regulations?\",\"answer\":\"Environmental and energy conservation and traffic-accident prevention are strengthening requirements worldwide, leading countries to improve vehicle safety and environmental performance.\"},{\"question\":\"Which regulatory developments does Japan pursue for vehicle approval and safety systems?\",\"answer\":\"Japan accelerates work toward mutual recognition of whole-vehicle type approval and adopts measures such as stability control, ABS requirements, and steering gear configuration and identification requirements.\"},{\"question\":\"What are key themes in the U.S. and Canada section regarding emissions and compliance?\",\"answer\":\"The text emphasizes slow progression from draft to final safety rules, Tier 3 emissions strengthening, OBD regulations, fuel consumption labels based on a 5-cycle test methodology, and tighter chemical substance management through EPA rules.\"}]","The Automobile and Technical Regulations - Introduction - Japan - U.S. and Canada - Europe - Other Regions | PDF",1789731970,38]
