NHTSA Proposes New Safety Standard for Large Buses

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is proposing a new Federal motor vehicle safety standard to enhance the rollover structural integrity of large buses, with the goal of protecting occupants in rollover crashes. The proposed standard would require new buses to meet specific performance requirements in a rollover test, ensuring the survival space of restrained occupants, secured seats and luggage racks, and operable emergency exits.
