How to speak up in support of new USDOT regulations
USDOT wants to hear from you! There are not one, but TWO opportunities to speak up supporting new regulations to make vehicles safer for pedestrians.
Right now, America’s top traffic safety authority has two proposals on the table: one to rate cars based on how safe they are for pedestrians, the other to require new cars to have life-saving technology that detects pedestrians and applies the brakes before hitting someone.
We know from experience that such rules can be hotly contested and become watered down, especially if there is not strong public support for safety. In this webinar, learn about the details of the proposed rules, and how your comments can help achieve better rules that save more lives.
