NTSB STATE MOST WANTED RECOMMENDATIONS TOPIC OF BOARD MEETING
The National Transportation Safety Board will hold a public Board meeting on Tuesday, September 18, 2007, at 9:30 a.m., in its Board Room and Conference Center, 429 L'Enfant Plaza, SW, Washington, DC.
The meeting will focus on a discussion of the NTSB's "Most Wanted List" of safety improvements - a series of recommendations the Safety Board has issued to the States over the past few years. The Board will evaluate how responsive the States have been to its recommendations.
The State Most Wanted list has six issue areas:
* Primary Seat Belt Laws - Terry Williams
* Youth Highway Safety - Keith Holloway
* Improved Child Occupant Protection - Bridget Serchak
* Hard Core Drinking Driving - Peter Knudson
* School Buses at Grade Crossings - Peter Knudson
* Recreational Boating Safety - Keith Holloway
The Most Wanted List was established in 1990 as a way for the Safety Board to focus attention on needed safety improvements in all modes of transportation. The list highlights recommendations that, if implemented, the Safety Board believes will have a significant impact on reducing deaths and injuries.
