| 2011-21596 | Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards; Denial of Petition for Rulemaking; School Buses | Proposed Rule | This document denies a petition for rulemaking from the Center for Auto Safety (CAS) and 21 others asking that NHTSA mandate the installation of three-point seat belts (lap/shoulder belts) for all seating positions on all school buses. We are denying the petition because we have not found a safety problem supporting a Federal requirement for lap/shoulder belts on large school buses, which are already very safe. The decision to install seat belts on school buses should be left to State and local jurisdictions, which can weigh the need for, benefits and consequences of installing belts on large school buses and best decide whether their particular pupil transportation programs merit installation of the devices. | 2011-08-25 | 2011 | 8 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2011/08/25/2011-21596/federal-motor-vehicle-safety-standards-denial-of-petition-for-rulemaking-school-buses | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2011-08-25/pdf/2011-21596.pdf | Transportation Department; National Highway Traffic Safety Administration | 492,345 | This document denies a petition for rulemaking from the Center for Auto Safety (CAS) and 21 others asking that NHTSA mandate the installation of three-point seat belts (lap/shoulder belts) for all seating positions on all school buses.
