During the testing national testing guidelines and regulations must be followed. Ideally, the testing regulations have already been considered in the test concept and the test specification. However, it is also important to double-check them once the actual testing is / has been planned, since they can change over time.
Examples from different non EU-cuntries / states are UK Department of Transport (2015) (UK), State of California DMV (2019) (US – California) and Austroads (2017) (Australia).
Main Question
Are the national testing guidelines / regulations being followed?
