Exclusive: Trump transition recommends scrapping car-crash reporting requirement opposed by Tesla


Published on Friday, December 13th 2024 at 6:21 GMT by Reuters   Print publication without navigation

  • The Trump transition team wants the incoming administration to drop a car-crash reporting requirement opposed by Elon Musk's Tesla , according to a document seen by Reuters, a move that could cripple the government's ability to investigate and regulate the safety of vehicles with automated-driving systems.

The Trump transition team has recommended the elimination of a federal requirement for automakers to report detailed data on car crashes, a move that has been met with opposition from safety advocates and some within the auto industry. This proposal, which was part of a broader initiative to reduce regulatory burdens, would repeal a rule established in 2022 by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The rule mandates that manufacturers provide extensive crash data to help enhance vehicle safety. Critics argue that removing this requirement could hinder efforts to improve vehicle safety and reduce road fatalities, as the data is crucial for identifying safety issues and developing effective countermeasures. The recommendation comes amidst a backdrop of increasing road deaths in the U.S., with 2021 seeing the highest number of traffic fatalities since 2005.
