Abstract

This notice proposes that Safety Standard No.108 be amended to reduce the minimum effective projected luminous lens area from 12 square inches to 8 square inches, on those multiple compartment stop lamps and turn signal lamps which are mounted on vehicles whose overall width is 80 inches or more. The purpose of the amendment would be to remove an inconsistency from the standard and reduce production costs by making the requirement for wide vehicles identical to those for narrower ones. The Notice implements the grant of a petition for rulemaking by Truck-Life Company
