Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 141 / Monday, July 25, 2005 / Notices
proposing further changes to the
requirements for child restraint labels.
In July of 2003, NHTSA conducted
further research on child restraint
labels. NHTSA followed similar
procedures as that used by Transport
Canada in their research. The research
report is available in docket NHTSA–
2001–10916. After reviewing this
research, NHTSA has decided that it
will not conduct further rulemaking at
this time.
The major issue that the research
examined was color-coding. In the
November 2001 NPRM, NHTSA
proposed to require forward-facing
instructions to be outlined in red and
rearward-facing instructions to be
outlined in blue. These colors were
chosen to harmonize with a European
requirement. The Transport Canada
study found a large number of child
restraints incorrectly installed forwardfacing, rather than rearward-facing, for
the infant dummy for all label
configurations. Transport Canada
theorized that one source of the
confusion was the red color-coding
attracting attention towards the forwardfacing instructions and away from the
rearward-facing instructions. Therefore,
Transport Canada recommended colorcoding with red for rearward-facing and
blue for forward-facing. This color
combination was used in our 2003
research and did not show a significant
improvement in correct installations.
In the October 2002 final rule,
NHTSA also indicated it would conduct
further passive analysis research at the
next stage of the rulemaking. On further
consideration, NHTSA has decided that
it will not conduct this or any other
follow-on research at this time. NHTSA
has not received any comments or
petitions expressing concern with the
labels since the effective date in October
2003. Therefore, given the limited
resources of the agency, NHTSA does
not feel further research is warranted at
this time. NHTSA will concentrate its
efforts in areas with greater potential
payoffs.
