Consumers Governments Manufacturers

Safety is important to …

• Consumers regularly look for vehicle safety information before making their purchase decision

• J.D. Power lists safety as the most desired aspect of vehicle features

• Safety awareness levels increasing along with aging U.S. population

• Safety products and features help differentiate vehicles

• Adopting voluntary safety standards in response to market demand and regulatory trends

• Advertising and marketing heavily focused on safety message

• NHTSA NPRM for ESC• NHTSA side impact

protection (FMVSS214)• Occupant sensing

(FMVSS208)• TREAD Act - tire pressure

monitoring and rollover testing

• Fuel economy• Pedestrian protection

SHOPPING FOR A SAFER CARIf you're like most people shopping for a new car, safety ranks high among your purchase considerations. Every new passenger vehicle must meet federal standards specifying minimum safety levels, but this doesn't mean all cars are equally safe. There still are important safety differences…(Insurance Institute For Highway Safety)
