About This Video
Research released today by KidsAndCars.org shows injuries to occupants in vehicles equipped with power windows to number in the tens of millions, in sharp contrast to estimates by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) that put the number at less than 2,000. In its proposed rulemaking (NPRM) issued in August, NHTSA concluded that, because so few people are injured by power windows, existing technology such as auto reversing systems (ARS) need not be mandated. With its new data that refutes NHTSA's estimates, KidsAndCars.org urges NHTSA to reexamine its stance and require that ARS become standard on all vehicles sold in the U.S.
