Motor Vehicle Safety Standards

Motor Vehicle Safety Standards are regulations set by government agencies to ensure vehicles are designed and built to minimize the risk of injuries and accidents. These standards specify requirements for vehicle features such as crashworthiness, braking systems, lighting, and safety equipment like airbags. They help manufacturers create safer vehicles and ensure consistency across the industry. By adhering to these standards, vehicles are better equipped to protect drivers and passengers in the event of a crash or emergency, promoting overall road safety.
