History

Historical Context

The National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act, enacted in 1966, established federal safety standards in response to a six-fold increase in road fatalities since 1925. By 1970, this legislation contributed to a 25% reduction in traffic deaths. Recent accidents in Texas underscore ongoing safety challenges, prompting discussions for further legislative measures to enhance road safety and prevent future incidents.
