Alert
The Safe, Accountable, Flexible, and Efficient
Transportation Equity Act (SAFETEA) of 2005, Section
10301, requires the Secretary of Transportation to
establish performance standards to reduce complete or
partial ejections from outside seating positions. In
doing so, the Secretary must consider various ejection
mitigation systems, which could include the use
of laminated glass. The final rule is due by October 1,
2009.
