Adams pushes for air bags and passive restraints in cars
Transportation Secretary Brock Adams warns smaller cars in the next decade may be unsafe without new safety devices. He favors passive restraints but has not set a timetable. A public hearing is set for April 27 to review William Coleman’s decision against universal airbags. Congress would have 30 days to override. Adams expects airbags in new cars by 1980 or 1981 with costs of about $100 to $150 per vehicle.
