This month, congressional allies offered critical leadership on the issue of crash test equality in both the House and Senate Fiscal Year 2024 Appropriations Reports. The reports highlight the growing consensus on the issue of crash testing equality, calling for the adoption of female crash test dummies and urging that NHTSA require the same frontal crash tests for female drivers that they do for men. 

We are excited to see incredible progress being made towards equality among regulators, legislators and industry. The quicker we deploy updated and expanded tests and advanced crash testing equipment, the more lives can be saved.  

At VERITY Now, we are continuing to work to bring about these much-needed changes as quickly as possible.  For more details, you can review VERITY Now’s statement in response to House Appropriations, as well as the statement to the Senate.
