Honda Says "No"
to Seat Belts for Larger Passengers
Subject: New seat belt regulations
needed
To: samfarr@mail.house.gov
From: "Fred Wehling"
Dear Congressman Farr,
I write to ask you to support the effort to amend NHTSA Regulation 571.209,
Standard No. 209, which sets standards for automobile and light truck seat belts.
At present, auto manufactureers are not required to install seat belts which
acommodate all adult Americans, particularly persons of size. Amending this
regulation would give all drivers and passengers on America's roads the full
protection afforded by automotive safety equipment, and would help save lives.
Sincerely,
Fred Wehling
Monterey, CA
