She DRIVES Act

This bill requires the U.S. Department of Transportation to update vehicle safety crash testing standards within 180 days. It mandates using new testing devices for both adult male (50th percentile) and adult female (5th percentile) occupants in all seating positions, including driver and rear seats. The rule must include updated injury criteria based on real-world crash data and require physical crash tests to validate digital simulations. Vehicle manufacturers will be directly affected as they must comply with these revised testing procedures for new car safety ratings. The rule must be updated annually to incorporate new testing technology.
