Auto industry is a step closer to safety. It is one of those occasions when almost all the car makers and government regulators have agreed on a common thing; to make cars safer by installing auto-emergency braking system mainstream in all of the US vehicles by 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The report was first disclosed by Reuters on Wednesday; however, the agreement was confirmed today by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) and the US Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and 20 car companies that represent over 99% of the total US auto sales. The automatic emergency braking system will become a standard feature on all new vehicles beginning from September 2022, which is when NHTSA\u2019s reporting year starts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
