Air bags
five mile an hour bumpers
seat belts
clean output standards such as everyone's favorite the catalytic converter
head rests
And the point is? It is not the governments obligation nor duty to legislate these sorts of things. The reason Americans fought and died in wars was so that there would be no big brother. It always amazes me what people are willing to give up so that they don't have to take responsibilities for their own actions. Ed
