Meeting the Safety ChallengeMeeting the Safety Challenge
• While crashworthiness standards have been and will continue to be very important, we are reaching the point of diminishing returns by focusing only on crashworthiness. The biggest return on investment in terms of lives saved and injuries prevented in the future will come from accelerated development and deployment of crash avoidance technologies.
