Subject: NO DRIVER'S SAFETY RAIL | Summary: The nhtsa office of vehicle safety standards is currently developing federal motor vehicle safety standards for both school and transit buses. driver privacy rails, as well as requiring seat belts in passenger seating locations, are being considered for potential rulemaking. however, in the absence of any current standards and in light of the fact that there are no reported accidents or injuries alleged to have been caused by a lack of a driver security rail, there does not appear to be any defect trend in this particular case.please see closing report for addional information.as no safety defect or safety-defect trend has been identified, further commitment of resources to determine whether a safety defect may exist is not warranted. |
