The lateral displacement is used to assess a vehicle’s responsiveness. The lateral displacement of the vehicle center of gravity with respect to its initial straight path must be at least 1.83 m (6 feet) for vehicles with a GVWR of 3,500 kg (7,716 lb) or less, and 1.52 m (5 feet) for vehicles with a GVWR greater than 3,500 kg (7,716 lb) when computed 1.07 seconds after the Beginning of Steer (BOS) at specified commanded steering wheel angles. The ESC system must also be capable of detecting and warning of system malfunctions. As reflected in the final rule, FMVSS No. 126 is a performance standard. Petitions for reconsideration of the final rule have been received and may be viewed on DOT Web site https://dms.dot.gov, or from the Federal Docket Management System (FMDS) at https:// www.regulations.gov (reference docket number NHTSA–2007–27662). TP–126 is a test procedure applicable only to contractors employed by NHTSA to perform compliance tests on its behalf. The test procedure reflects FMVSS No. 126 but is not the standard itself or an interpretation of the standard. (See the purpose and application section of TP– 126 for a more complete discussion of the nature of NHTSA’s test procedures.) Workshop: To enable interested parties and NHTSA personnel to discuss the questions concerning TP–126, NHTSA believes that it would be desirable to hold a technical workshop and demonstration on the test procedure. The scope of this workshop is strictly limited to issues surrounding implementation of OVSC Laboratory Test Procedure TP–126, including subsequent amendments, if any, to the procedure resulting from the agency’s response to petitions for reconsideration of the final rule. TP–126 is posted on the NHTSA Web site at https:// www.nhtsa.dot.gov (under ‘‘Test Procedures’’ on the Vehicles and Equipment page). Agenda: The workshop will begin at 8:30 a.m. on November 7, 2007 and conclude by 5 p.m. (If a back-up day is required, due to inclement weather, the workshop will take place on November 8, 2007.) The agenda includes technical VerDate Aug<31>2005 16:09 Oct 10, 2007 Jkt 214001 discussions about the execution of the compliance test, lunch (to be paid for by each participant), and a physical ESC test demonstration.
