Growing Initiatives for Introducing Regulatory Standards Related to Vehicle Safety
The automotive industry is a pillar of the North America economy. It plays a crucial role in a country's economy and helps build macroeconomic growth and stability in developed and developing countries, spanning many adjacent sectors. After the pandemic, a sharp increase in car sales and a significant rise in traffic accidents have become increasingly frequent and severe. At the same time, with the rapid development of science and technology, automotive technology has also been rapidly improved, and automotive safety technology has gradually become involved in all aspects of the car. As per the report published by National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the traffic fatalities in 2021 had shown an increase of about 10.5% compared to reported fatalities in 2020. The estimated fatalities are the highest number since 2005 and the largest annual percentage increase in the Fatality Analysis Reporting System’s history in the US. Thus, the government agencies strongly emphasized on improving safety policies and standards, along with significant investment in reducing road accidents. For instance, in May 2022, the NHTSA approved US$ 740 million in funding for the 402 State and Community Grant Program, Section 1906 Racial Profiling Data Collection Grants, and Section 405 National Priority Safety Program. The US States are encouraged to use the funding to implement programs to address gaps and opportunities for expanding partnerships and focus on risky driving and safety concerns among vulnerable road users and the large presence of the population. Thus, such initiatives for introducing regulatory standards related to vehicle safety are fuelling the market growth.
