Title: ●New Car Assessment Program; Safety Labeling  
Abstract: Section 10307 of the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act--a Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU) (Pub. L. 105-59) amended the Automobile Information Disclosure Act under 15 U.S.C. section 1232, adding a safety rating label requirement. If a vehicle safety rating has been released by NHTSA through the New Car Assessment Program (NCAP), SAFETEA-LU requires that the information about safety ratings be included on the 15 U.S.C. section 1232 label. This rulemaking would incorporate the SAFETEA-LU labeling requirements for NCAP consumer information.
