Safety Issues for Vehicles Adapted for Persons with Disabilities

People interested in the safety of adapted vehicles are directed to this month’s research update. Safety Issues for Vehicles Adapted for Persons with Disabilities was prepared by the Bureau of Transportation Statistics in June, 2002. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) requested this summary of consumer feedback on vehicle adaptations and users' safety ratings.

To view Safety Issues for Vehicles Adapted for Persons with Disabilities, go to: http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/cars/rules/adaptive/BTSRN/AdaptedDisability.pdf

For additional information on automotive safety issues for persons with disabilities, go to: www.nhtsa.dot.gov/cars/rules/adaptive. This website, sponsored by the NHTSA, addresses consumer information, rules and regulations, industry standards, and related research.
