Child Safety in Passenger Vehicles
Motor vehicle crashes are the number one cause of death for children between the ages of 1 and 16. Although the child death rate has decreased as the trend of properly restraining children has risen, automobiles are still not always designed with the safety of children in mind and new laws are needed to ensure the safest highway, and driveway, for America's children.

Truck Safety 
Almost 5,000 people are killed each year in truck-related crashes. Because of their size and often dangerous payloads, crashes involving commercial trucks are devastating to pedestrians and occupants of other vehicles.
