Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards; Lamps, Reflective Devices and Associated Equipment

Résumé

This document grants three requests to extend the comment period on an agency proposal to amend the geometric visibility requirements of signal lamps and the rear side marker color, both contained Standard No. 108, Lamps, Reflective Devices and Associated Equipment. The goal of the proposed amendment is to assist international efforts to harmonize the lighting requirements of continental Europe, the United Kingdom, Japan and the United States. A lengthy extension of the comment period is desirable because a large number of governmental and industry parties require time to achieve internal consensus on the usefulness of the NHTSA proposal. The comment closing date is changed from December 26, 1995 to May 16, 1996.
