Title: Upgrade of Rear Impact Guard Requirements for Trailers and Semitrailers | |
Abstract: If finalized, this rulemaking would upgrade FMVSS No. 223, Rear impact guards, and FMVSS No. 224, Rear impact protection, for improving rear underride crash protection on trailers and semitrailers. This rulemaking responds to a petition for rulemaking from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety that requested a number of modifications to FMVSS Nos. 223 and 224 to improve rear underride protection for trailers and semitrailers. It also responds, in part, to a petition for rulemaking from Mrs. Karth and the Truck Safety Coalition requesting improving rear impact guards on trailers and semitrailers as outlined in the July 10, 2014 grant of the petition. | |
