Uniform test for side air bags requested

Article Abstract:

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTA) has requested the auto industry to voluntarily adopt common test procedures for side air bags to prevent discrepancies in testing. The NHTA discovered that conflicting results have been achieved from two similar tests conducted to measure the safety and performance of airbags during vehicular accidents. According to safety experts, the adoption will also enable the government to investigate and recall cars with air bags that may be more dangerous than others.
