Who To Blame For Recalls & What To Do
June, 2015
Michael R. Lemov, author of the new book “Car Safety Wars”, has written an article just published in the Detroit News:“The blame for this regulation by recall and for the slowdown in preventive standard setting must be shared by the automobile industry and Congress. The former often lobbies against new safety regulations. The Congress has starved NHTSA for adequate funding and staff for years.” See http://www.detroitnews.com/story/opinion/2015/06/04/lemov-auto-safety-recalls-flawed-remedy/28425435/
