<body>
<p>In accordance with MAP-21 section 32703(b)(2), this rulemaking would require motorcoach advanced glazing and anti-ejection safety countermeasures. NHTSA is considering portal improvements, such as advanced glazing, to prevent partial and complete ejection of motorcoach passengers, including children. In prescribing such standards, NHTSA will consider the impact of such standards on the use of motorcoach portals as a means of emergency egress.</p>
