Nicole NASON, Leiter der National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), behauptet, dass die Crash-Normen, die auf die Bücher seit 1973 sind für eine Überarbeitung. In Anerkennung der 9 von 10 Fahrzeugen routinemäßig Ergebnis entweder vier-oder fünf-Sterne auf die Verwaltung der Tests, die sie suchen, um die Normen für Front-und Seiten-Auswirkungen, zusammen mit strengere Prüfung der Rollover-Schutz. Der Umzug ist darauf zurückzuführen, was einige der Meinung sind antiquiert Prüfung Maßnahmen, sowie die Behauptung, dass die Autohersteller Ingenieur Fahrzeuge speziell auf gut über die aktuellen Tests. Erhöhte Rollover-Schutz ist offenbar eines der wichtigsten Ziele der Verwaltung, und NASON ist die Planung auf-Rewriting 2005 ein Vorschlag, die Erhöhung Dach Stärke. Allerdings, räumt ein, dass sie es nur speichern etwa 100 Menschenleben pro Jahr.
Autohersteller haben behauptet, für eine gewisse Zeit, dass die technologische Sättigung für Crash-Schutz ist immer näher, und dass Fahrer Verhalten behandelt werden muss. NASON vor, dass Fahrzeuge sollten in der Lage zu überwinden, Fehler durch den Benutzer, indem er sagte: "Die Zukunft der Automobil-Crash-Sicherheit ist die Vermeidung Technologie." Warum diese beiden Ziele können nicht behandelt werden gleichzeitig ist reine Vermutung.
