Download as PDF 48064 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 150 / Friday, August 5, 2022 / Notices The revised rule only increases the upper edge area swept by the windshield wipers and does not change the lower edge area. Applicant’s Request DCNA has applied for an exemption from 49 CFR 393.60(e)(1) to allow its driver assistance camera technology device to be mounted higher in the lower area of the windshield than is currently permitted. A copy of the application is included in the docket referenced at the beginning of this notice. lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1 Equivalent Level of Safety In its application, DCNA states that the functionality of its driver assistance camera technology includes the ability to manage the Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS), Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Active Brake Assist 5 (ABA5) which is the minimum standard safety system and integral to the Electronic Stability Program (ESP). ABA5 uses both existing radar and the new camera technology for both pedestrian and vehicle recognition, commonly referred to as a ‘‘forward collision mitigation system.’’ The technology housing is approximately 187 mm (7.36 inches) tall by 277 mm (10.9 inches) wide and will be mounted in the approximate lower center of the windshield with the bottom edge of the housing approximately 240 mm (about 9.44 inches) above the lower edge of the area swept by the windshield wipers. The technology will be mounted outside the driver’s normal sight lines to the road ahead, signs, signals, and mirrors. This location will allow for optimal functionality of the safety features supported by DCNA’s driver assistance camera technology. The location of the technology—within the sweep of the left side windshield wiper—also ensures the safe operation of the system in inclement weather, where the sensors field of view can be wiped ’clean’, as required, by normal use of the windshield wiper system. DCNA believes that mounting the driver assistance camera technology system as described will maintain a level of safety that is equivalent to, or greater than, the level of safety achieved without the exemption. IV. Request for Comments In accordance with 49 U.S.C. 31315(b)(6), FMCSA requests public comment from all interested persons on DCNA’s application for an exemption. All comments received before the close of business on the comment closing date indicated at the beginning of this notice VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:20 Aug 04, 2022 Jkt 256001 will be considered and will be available for examination in the docket at the location listed under the ADDRESSES section of this notice.
