• In order to develop the safety in accordance with road traffic circumstances of ASEAN countries, it is necessary to realize spiral-up as shown below.

• We would like to support so that ASEAN countries could make below spiral-up.

- Since 1988 until 1996, traffic fatalities had continued to be beyond 10,000 people annually in Japan. As a result, countermeasures against fatal accident in the car had been required.

- In order to enhance the performance of impact absorption of vehicle, Japan had amended “the Japanese safety regulations for road vehicles”

- As the result of the countermeasures, the number of fatal accident in the car has been decreased to less than half compared with the peak.

Introduction of JASIC and the Outline of WP.29 Activities(上野)

Basic Outline of the 1958 Agreement(戸羽)

Japan’s Experience on alignment of UN Regulations in national law(是則)

Observation of the 1958 Agreement from FAQs(上野)

ASEAN 各国でこういう内容のセミナーを何度も開催していて、よく受ける質問があるので、それをピ

ックアップしてできるだけわかりやすくお答えしたい。

Q1 58 協定とはなんですか?

二つの目的があります。

一つ目の目的は UN 規則を作ること。UN 規則により、複数の締約国内の車両、部品の使用を簡素化す

ることができる。仕様をハーモすることによって締約国間で一本化することができる。

二つ目の目的は UN 規則による相互承認の実施(MRA)。MRA とは一度の試験で複数の締約国間が認可

を共有して認め合うための国際的な枠組み。

Q2 締約国の権利と義務。加盟後、何ができるようになるか、何をしなければいけなくなるか?

権利~WP29 での投票、UN 規則を選択して採用すること、採用した規則について認可を発行すること。

義務~採用した規則について他国が発行した認可の受け入れ、COP、規則不適合の際の対応

Q3 58 協定締約国は自国のテスト施設を持たなければいけないのか?

必ずしも必要ない。第三者機関を使うことも可能だし、メーカーの試験設備を使うこともできる。そも

そも他国の認可の受け入れのみで自国は認可発行をしないという選択肢もある。試験機関の有無は協定

Page 86: JASIC - 自動車基準認証国際化研究センター - The 42nd Asia ......Number of meetings :160 times Dispatch experts :60 members Intl. meeting in Japan:2 times Technical

加盟には影響ないということは年頭においてください。

Q4 58 協定に加盟したらすべての UN 規則を採用しなければいけないのか?

NO。どの規則をいくつ採用するかは締約国の自由。一つも採用しなくても加盟はできる。(メリットは

ないが理屈上可能。)スライド P15 は実際の各締約国の採用例。相互承認は、同じ規則を採用している

締約国同士でのみ成立する。

Q5 どの UN 規則を採用すればよいのか?

各国の事情をみて優先順位をつけていけばよい。急がなくていいので段階的に。各国状況というのは、

たとえば交通事情(二輪車が多い、大型車が多い)、事故実態、EV 推進などの自動車政策など。

Q6 加盟のメリットとは?

自動車メーカーはコストと工数削減、ユーザーは車をより安価で買える、行政当局は法規制定作業が楽

になり、認可手続きも簡素化されるというメリットがある。

Q7 加盟に必要なコストは?

加盟費はゼロ。

Q8 加盟後に必要なコストは?

A8 これは各国による。加盟後に試験設備を整えることにした国があり、そういう国は設備投資費用が

かかるし、毎回ジュネーブでの会議出席者を派遣すると決めたら旅費もかかる。試験設備がなくても

大丈夫だし毎回は出席しないという選択肢もあるので、何に重きをおくかで必要コストは変わる。

質疑

Q1:2000 年に WP29 の正式名が変わったという説明があったが、もともとの WP29 というのはどうい

う意味か?29 か国が参加していたのか?

A1:国連には他の分野も含めて多くの Working Party があり、成立順に番号がふられている。WP29 と

は単純に 29 番目の Working Party ということ。ただ、ECE 傘下にある WP29 は欧州寄りの組織と

いうイメージがあるため、真のグローバルなフォーラムという意の名称に改められた。

Q2:ASEAN メンバーの中で未加盟国は多い。例えばシンガポールはなぜまだ締約国でないのか?まだ

タイとマレーシアの 2 か国しか加盟していない。メーカーが国内になければいけないとかそういう

制約はあるのか?

A2:シンガポールが未加盟なのは、シンガポールには自動車メーカーも部品メーカーもないので国外輸

出するものがなく、協定加盟によって得られるメリットを享受することがないからかもしれない。

カンボジアでもまだ部品の生産量、輸出量は少ないかもしれないが、協定加盟によってメリットは

得られるし、これから輸出量がのびていけばメリットはさらに増大する。

Q3:2 つ質問。①カンボジアは自動車生産国ではないが得られるメリットは?②もしカンボジア製部品

の輸出ができるようになった場合、1958 年協定に加盟していなかったら他国でのカンボジア製品

の受け入れに支障があるのか。

A3:一つ目の質問。カンボジアでは自動車は生産していないが部品は生産していると思う。この協定は

車両全体だけではなく部品の相互承認も対象。たとえばカンボジア製のタイヤをタイに輸出する際

に、この協定ベースの認可があれば多くの国と相互承認により輸出が容易になる。もし加盟してい

ればタイヤの UN 規則に適合さえしていれば(同規則を採用している国に)輸出できる。協定加盟

せず他国に受け入れられるかどうかという質問は相手国による。昨日まで OK だったものが相手国

の方針変更により NG になることもありうる。が、協定締約国間であれば採用している規則に関し

Page 87: JASIC - 自動車基準認証国際化研究センター - The 42nd Asia ......Number of meetings :160 times Dispatch experts :60 members Intl. meeting in Japan:2 times Technical

ては相互受け入れが保証されている。

Q4:型式認証システムは新車対象だと思うが中古車に対してはどうなのか。カンボジアでは中古車の対

策が大きな問題だがどのような手段があるか。 中古車の輸出、使用についてこの協定でなにか規

定はあるか。 日本の UN 規則導入の経験について、(是則さんのプレゼンを見ると)Road Transport

Act はリコールなども含めかなり多くの要素を含んでいる。UN 規則もすでに 50 もの項目を採用し

ているようだが、これは一本の Act ですべてカバーしているのか?

A4-1: 初の質問は中古車対策についてだったが、1958 年協定はこれから市場に出る新しい車両に対

するもの。これは新車の性能要件に関するものなの。開発段階で既存の基準を満たしているように

車両は設計、製造されるので、そのための要件が規定されている。すでに路上に出た車両のチェッ

クは inspection system において管理する必要がある。中古車の取り扱いについては、WP29 傘下

で車検について取り扱っている別の協定があり、1997 年協定というのがある。国際的に車検の結

果を共有するもの。残念ながらこの協定は東欧の限られた国しか加盟しておらず、日本も西欧諸国

も加盟していない。

A4-2:3 つ目の質問について。人・道路・車両の3つの点から道路交通安全対策を講じており、例えば

人については、別の法律で決まっている。Road Transport Vehicle Act は、 初、車両の登録と車検

について規定されており、型式認証制度は登録時の検査の代替手段と追加されたもの。リコールも

後から追加されたもの。現在は、この法律 1 本で6つの要素をカバーしている。

Q5:カンボジアで走行している車の大半が US から来た中古車で、多くが事故歴のある車。排ガス試験

にも安全試験にも適合しない車両がほとんど。カンボジア国内でそういった車を管理するすべがな

い。この状況で WP29 のメンバーになってもメリットがあるのだろうか。将来的にはいいことかも

しれないが。現在の使用過程車をコントロールすることのほうが先ではないのか。そういったこと

を整える前にとりあえず協定に加盟したほうがいいのか。

Q6:(逐次通訳ついでに追加質問)US は 58 協定には加盟せず 98 協定に加盟しているがこれはどうい

うことか。

A5&6:使用過程車の取り締まりと協定加盟はパラレルで考えられる。中古車の問題解決には協定加盟

は直接役にたたないが、それでもなおメリットはある。その点で早期に WP29 に参加することを進

める。将来のための準備と考えてほしい。カンボジアは今成長しているところであって自動車産業

もこれから伸びていくと予想する。この段階から WP29 の活動にかかわることの意義は大きいと思

う。US に関する質問は、US は安全に関しては自己認証制度といって政府が認可を発行するという

しくみがないから。国内制度の事情で 58 協定加盟は難しい状況にある。個人的見解だが、58 協定

は実際のところ 98 協定よりも広く運用されている。法規の数をみても明らか。だが、98 協定の活

動も重要視している。その理由は US ほか 98 協定にしか加盟していない国をグローバルな基準作

りに取り込むため。特に新技術の法規化にあたっては GTR の中身を UNR に取り込むという手段も

ある。

Closing

Mr. Chan Dara:58 協定、UN 規則についての詳細な説明はカンボジアにとっても大変重要な情報。多

くの質問があったがその前にプレゼンの中ですでにクリアになった質問が8つある。(Q&A プレゼ

ンを指す)カンボジアは現在 58 協定加盟のメリットを政府、road user, メーカーの三極で評価し

ているところ。近い将来には部品業界が国際展開することになるかもしれないし、そういったこと

も念頭に加盟の要否を考えている。Investor にとっても魅力的なことかもしれない。カンボジアに

も自動車産業ができるかもしれないという意識も出てきている。今後も日本のサポートを期待。将

来 58 協定、98 協定に加盟して規則を採用することも考えている。日本と JASIC の経験も参考にし

ていきたい。
