Automakers Criticize NHTSA Over Safety Regulations and Modernization

Imagine a group that makes sure cars are safe.

Automakers, like the companies that make your car, think this group, NHTSA, isn't doing its job well.

They say NHTSA is too slow in making new rules and is stopping them from making safer cars with new technology.

These companies want the group to change some rules and update others.

Another group, the IIHS, also thinks the NHTSA needs to work faster and more effectively to keep drivers safe.

Car accidents are still happening more often than before the pandemic, and these groups want NHTSA to take action to fix this.
