Document Number: 2019-27210
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2019-12-26
Agency: National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Department of Transportation
This document proposes to revise the chest jacket and spine box specifications for the Hybrid III 5th Percentile Female Test Dummy (HIII-5F) set forth in Part 572, Anthropomorphic Test Devices.

The spine box revisions would eliminate a source of signal noise caused by fasteners within the box that may become loose. This rulemaking responds to a petition for rulemaking from the Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers.
