Title: ●Advanced Air Bags 
Abstract: The agency is responding to petitions for reconsideration of our final rule published May 12, 2000 (65 FR 30679, RIN 2127-AG70) which required future air bags be designed to create less risk of serious air bag-induced injuries that current air bags, particularly for small women and young children; and provided improved frontal crash protection for all occupants, by means that included advanced air bag technology.
