Unfortunately, for lack of time I am not able to more thoroughly expose what the NHTSA is and what it does.
A Retarder Of Progress
Like the FDA, the NHTSA is one other big, soviet style federal bureaucracy that does more to stymie human progress than anything else. Like the infamous stagnation of progress of the old fashioned land line telephone that survived several decades without major changes thanks to a big government granted monopoly to ATT.
The NHTSA is probably largely superfluous. If cars a produced and sold with defects causing harm or death, then this is primarily a job for a prosecutor or for tort lawyers.
The private sector is probably quite capable to come up with its own and, quite possibly, better solutions to increase motor vehicle safety etc.
Most Americans Probably Clueless
I would bet that most Americans have no or little clue that this agency even exists or what extensive power it wields to interfere with almost anything related to motor vehicles in this country.
Thanks to public education and due to other reasons most Americans are left in the dark about NHTSA.
Example Rearview Camera
Recently, more manufacturers install by default rearview cameras in their vehicles. This is great!
However, from what I read again the NHTSA wants to be a bully and regulate the rearview camera to become a mandated feature etc. Once the NHTSA regulates this, new and better technologies will be delayed or even not introduced.
Why Can We Not Buy Indian Cars In The U.S.?
I would bet you one of the reasons is the NHTSA!
Why Are There Not More Smaller Automobile Manufacturers In The U.S.
Why are there only three big national automobile manufacturers in the U.S. and not also some succesful medium sized or smaller vehicle manufacturers? Don’t believe that it was solely the three big national manufacturers that eliminated the competition.
I bet you it has something to do with big government and the NHTSA!
