Explosions of Soda Bottles Called Hazard to Consumer
Washington federal investigator Larry A. Schott told the National Commission on Product Safety that defective glass soda bottles pose the most dangerous risk in households. He cited 150000 annual injuries from glass bottles, with 90000 affecting children under 15, and criticized industry testing. Bottlers and the soft drink industry disputed the claim, noting low injury rates relative to hundreds of millions of bottles used from 1965 to 1968.
