Informal document No. 16 (84th GRSG, 5-9 may 2003, Agenda item 9) National Regulations concerning Driver’s field of vision of immediate frontward and sideward Transmitted by the expert from JAPAN Scope These technical Regulations apply to the mirror and other devices pursuant paragraph 5 of Article 44 of the Safety Regulations. Definitions: “Seating Reference Point” means point H (a hip joint of the dummy) of 3DH machine seated on the vehicle seat in accordance with the seating arrangement set forth in IS0-6549-1980 or seated in the design standard equivalent to ISO. In the case where seats have an adjustment mechanism to move them in a front/back or up/down direction, to tilt a backrest or for other adjustment, the seats should be placed at the design standard position. “The driver’s ocular points” mean driver’ s ordinary eye points in an usual driving condition that passes a point vertically 635mm above the Seating Reference Point (hereinafter referred to as a “Midpoint of reference eye point”), and are also points that lie on a straight line perpendicular to a center plane of a vehicle, and are symmetrically located 65mm to the right and left from the Midpoint of reference eye point (binocular). In this case, the Midpoint of reference eye points is adjusted in Longitudinal or vertical directions by the distance corresponding to the “back angle” of the test vehicle shown in Table 1. “Back angle” means the backward-tilted angle of the body base line of a seated person that corresponds to either the torso angle measured using a 3 DH machine defined in IS0-6549-1980 or corresponding to a design standard angle equivalent to the said torso angle.   Table 1: Compensation of midpoint of reference eye points Back angles (degrees) Compensation Distance Back angles (degrees) Compensation Distance Longitudinal Direction mm Vertical Direction mm Longitudinal Direction mm Vertical Direction mm 5 -186 28 23 -18 5 6 -177 27 24 -9 3 7 -167 27 25 0 0
