Title: Motorcoach Rollover Structural Integrity (MAP-21)  
Abstract: This rulemaking would promulgate a new FMVSS for rollover structural integrity requirements for motorcoaches. In August 2007, NHTSA published a motorcoach safety plan identifying four specific priority items: seat belts on motorcoaches, rollover structural integrity, emergency evacuation, and fire safety. The DOT published a comprehensive motorcoach safety action plan in November 2009, that reiterated NHTSA´s motorcoach safety priorities. This rulemaking also addresses six recommendations issued by the NTSB on motorcoach roof strength and structural integrity, and is responsive to requirements of the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century (MAP-21) Act.
