VERITY (Vehicle Equity Rules in Transportation) NOW strives to achieve equity in vehicle safety by educating on, and advocating for, crash testing standards that protect every body, regardless of gender, height, weight or age. Inherent biases in crash testing put women, young people, the elderly and heavier body types at significantly higher risk of injury or death in car crashes. This is unacceptable. We need to update vehicle crash testing standards and practices to better understand the safety needs of a broader range of body types. Technologies exist that can give us a more accurate understanding of how all vehicle occupants are impacted in a crash. These technologies, which employ sensors and other advanced tools, create better data – which can lead to better designs that account for every body. It is time to deploy these technologies to help save lives. VERITY NOW is a group of people who are coming together to voice our concern about these inequities – and talk to policymakers in the U.S. and E.U. who have the power to fix them.
