What it does

Addresses underride crashes through additional federal standards, research and advisory work. It is also a good example of why USBCA should remain neutral. Safety advocates, carriers, drivers and equipment manufacturers may reach very different conclusions about proposed mandates.

Full title: To reduce the incidence of death by underride by enhancing underride protection on trailers, semitrailers, and single unit trucks, which will result in more survivable truck crashes, to improve motor carrier, passenger motor vehicle, and Vulnerable Road User safety, and for other purposes.
