Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards; Compressed Natural Gas Fuel Containers

Traduction automatique locale · Langue originale de la source

Résumé

On December 3, 1998, we published a final rule that deleted the material and manufacturing process requirements in the Federal motor vehicle safety standard on compressed natural gas fuel containers. As part of this final rule, we amended the provisions relating to the hydrostatic burst test to remove any reference to the deleted requirements. Those amendments also inadvertently amended the hydrostatic burst test requirement to require the stress ratio to be applied as a pressure ratio. This document corrects that error, and thereby moots requests related to that amendment in several petitions for reconsideration of the 1998 final rule. This document also denies the request in a petition for reconsideration from Lincoln Composites, Inc., to link the deletion of the material and manufacturing process requirements with the addition of new performance tests to the standard.

Agency Information Collection Activities; Notice and Request for Comment; Consolidated Labeling Requirements for Motor Vehicles (Except the VIN)

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) invites public comments about our intention to request the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval to reinstate with modification an information collection. Before a Federal agency can collect certain information from the public, it must receive approval from OMB. Under procedures established by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, before seeking OMB approval, Federal agencies must solicit public comment on proposed collections of information, including reinstatement and modification of previously approved collections. This document describes a collection of labeling information on nine Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) for which NHTSA intends to seek OMB approval. The labeling requirements include brake fluid warning for vehicles with a GVWR greater than 3,500 kilograms (7,716 pounds), brake fluid warning for vehicles with a GVWR of 3,500 kilograms (7,716 pounds) or less, glazing labeling, air bag warning labels, seat belt labeling, compressed natural gas (CNG) vehicle fuel label, CNG fuel container labels, hydrogen fueled vehicle fueling label, and hydrogen fuel container labels. NHTSA is also requesti

Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards; Occupant Crash Protection, Seat Belt Reminder Systems

This interim final rule amends the seat belt warning requirements in Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 208, "Occupant crash protection" in response to petitions for reconsideration of the January 2025 final rule. This interim final rule delays the compliance dates and makes technical clarifications to the regulatory text. NHTSA denies the remainder of the requests. Though these amendments are effective immediately, to benefit from comments interested parties and the public may have, NHTSA requests that any comments be submitted to the docket for this rule. Following the close of the comment period, NHTSA will publish a final rule responding to any comments received and making any appropriate changes to the interim final rule.

Event Data Recorders

This final rule amends NHTSA's regulation governing Event Data Recorders (EDR or EDRs) to delay the implementation schedule for expanded pre-crash data capture requirements. In response to petitions for reconsideration of a final rule published on December 18, 2024, the agency is adopting a four-year phase-in compliance schedule that begins September 1, 2028. This action ensures the increased pre-crash data capture requirements are integrated into the vehicle fleet in a manner that aligns with manufacturer production cycles and technical feasibility.

Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards; Modernization of FMVSS No. 110 To Accommodate ADS-Equipped Vehicles

NHTSA is proposing to amend Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 110, "Tire selection and rims and motor home/ recreation vehicle trailer load carrying capacity information for motor vehicles with a GVWR of 4,536 kilograms (10,000 pounds) or less." The proposed modification would amend a single section of the standard to enable compliance by affixing the required placard on the left side of the vehicle when there is not a "driver's side" for vehicles equipped with Automated Driving Systems (ADS) that do not have manually operated driving controls. This rulemaking would allow flexibility in complying with the standard without detriment to vehicle safety. This action is part of a larger NHTSA effort to address vehicle automation in the agency's regulations.

Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards; Modernization of FMVSS No. 102 To Accommodate ADS-Equipped Vehicles

NHTSA is proposing to amend Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 102, "Transmission shift position sequence, starter interlock, and transmission braking effect." The proposed modification would except vehicles equipped with Automated Driving Systems (ADS) that do not have manually operated driving controls from the requirement for a transmission shift position display. This rulemaking would remove unnecessary regulatory burdens and costs associated with a display designed to aid a person driving the vehicle. As the transmission shift position display does not fulfill the same safety need in an ADS-equipped vehicle without manually operated driving controls, the amendment will not impact vehicle safety. This action is part of a larger NHTSA effort to address vehicle automation in the agency's regulations.

Zoox-Receipt of Application for Temporary Exemption From Various Requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards for an Automated Driving System-Equipped Vehicle; Request for Comment

Zoox, Inc. ("Zoox") has petitioned NHTSA for a temporary exemption from certain requirements in eight Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) applicable to its passenger car equipped with an automated driving system (ADS). Specifically, Zoox seeks exemption from portions of FMVSS No. 103, Windshield defrosting and defogging systems; FMVSS No. 104, Windshield wiping and washing systems; FMVSS No. 108, Lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment; FMVSS No. 111, Rear visibility; FMVSS No. 135, Light vehicle brake systems; FMVSS No. 201, Occupant protection in interior impact; FMVSS No. 205, Glazing materials; and FMVSS No. 208, Occupant crash protection. NHTSA is publishing this document in accordance with statutory and administrative provisions and seeks comment on the merits of Zoox's exemption application and on potential terms and conditions that should be applied to a temporary exemption if granted. After receiving and considering public comments, NHTSA will make a decision on the merits of the application and will publish a notice in the Federal Register setting forth NHTSA's reasoning for either granting or denying the petition.
