https://lnkd.in/dGTAmP9G Road crashes resulting in death, injury and damage are because: Drivers are trained with the aid of dual controls since 1900, rather than trained to use the original car controls, and The UK Government owned Transport Research Laboratory TRL designed Highway Code Stopping Distances, designed for one-way road emergency braking standard, after Thinking Time, are used in 145 countries worldwide. 50% of car occupants fatally injured were wearing safety belts, so why did the Safety Belts not save the lives of the other 50%. Safety Belts do not benefit: Pedestrians. Cyclists. Motor Cyclist's and Escooter Riders who make up 50% of the Road Casualties. Police having investigated road fatalities for 145 years since 1869, now promise 'Vision Zero' by 2050.

We at Together for Safer Roads applaud the newest proposed rules from National Highway Traffic Safety Administration NHTSA. New automobile manufacturer requirements concerning seat belt use warning systems for front and rear passenger seats are a logical, clear and important step to ultimately increasing seat belt usage and driving towards #VisionZero. According to the NHTSA's own data, wearing a seatbelt in a light truck can reduce the risk of fatal injuries by 60%. TSR has always supported innovations in technology and policies that aim to create safer vehicles and safer roads. We believe the work being done by the NHTSA embodies those goals, and we support the eventual adoption of these rules.

National Highway Traffic Safety Administration NHTSA recently announced a recall on Hyundai and Kia for a potential fire risk. For the details of this specific recall and which vehicles are impacted, click below. #FireRisk #Recall #Safety #Motorlease #WhateverItTakes

“Today, the U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration NHTSA finalized a new Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard that will make automatic emergency braking (#AEB), including pedestrian AEB, standard on all #PassengerCars and #LightTrucks by September 2029.” This is undoubtedly a major development in the automotive industry! 🚗 💨 NHTSA projects that this new standard, FMVSS No. 127, will save at least 360 lives a year and prevent at least 24,000 injuries annually. The proposal by NHTSA to mandate AEB comes nearly seven years after Euro NCAP - For Safer Cars, Vans & Trucks's timeline. So, what are the notable differences between the two? ✅ Firstly, NHTSA's #PedestrianAEB requirement applies only to pedestrians, whereas Euro NCAP's pedestrian AEB must cover both pedestrians and cyclists. ✅ Secondly, NHTSA mandates that pedestrian AEB must function at night. ✅ Thirdly, there are differences in operational conditions: - NHTSA requires #VehicleAEB to operate at speeds of 90 miles per hour or below, with the mandate to avoid collisions at speeds of 62 miles per hour or less with another vehicle. For pedestrian AEB, the requirement is 45 miles per hour or below, even if the pedestrian AEB system cannot entirely prevent accidents. - Euro NCAP demands that vehicle AEB operates fully to prevent collisions at speeds of up to 30 kilometers per hour, and at least halves collision speed at speeds of up to 60 kilometers per hour. Euro NCAP's pedestrian AEB requirement necessitates complete avoidance of pedestrian collisions at speeds of up to 60 kilometers per hour and avoidance of cyclist collisions at speeds of up to 30 kilometers per hour. #NHTSA #FMVSS #AEB #PedestrianAEB #NightCondition #RoadSafety #EuroNCAP #LifeSavingTechnologies

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration NHTSA has officially closed its investigation into airbag recalls involving BMW, Honda, Mitsubishi, Toyota, and Volkswagen. The focus was on NADI airbags, where defective foil seals posed a potential risk of moisture entering the inflators. This recall, distinct from previous Takata airbag concerns, addresses the possibility of slow airbag deployment or violent inflator ruptures. It's essential for affected vehicle owners to remain vigilant about safety recalls. Industry collaboration and adherence to safety standards are paramount to ensuring the well-being of drivers and passengers.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration NHTSA has issued a recalled for almost 100,000 vehicles, due to steering wheels issues and the possibility of bumpers detaching while moving. If you have a Toyota Motor Corporation, Honda, or a BMW, you may need to check your vehicle to see if your vehicle is part of the recall. #RoadSafety #Recall #AutomotiveIndustry #Motorlease #WhateverItTakes

The NHTSA finalized a Safety Standard to make Automatic Emergency Braking standard on all passenger cars and light trucks by September 2029. A similar rule is in process to require AEB on heavy-duty trucks.
