Abstract

A TRB study, requested by the U.S. Congress, has investigated the potential role of vehicle characteristics and related consumer information in reducing the number of rollover crashes. Among the recommendations are that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration should refine its rating system for rollover resistance, continue dynamic testing to complement the static measures now in use, and provide consumers with more information placing rollover risk in the context of motor vehicle safety.
