1974 Cars Face Air Bag Or Interlock Start Rule
Federal law takes effect requiring all 1974 models to have air bags or seat belt interlocks that prevent starting unless belts are fastened. Most manufacturers plan interlocks, GM offering air bags on select high end models. Interlocks use weight sensors and a microcomputer to block ignition if belts aren’t fastened, with penalties for dealers selling cars without a working interlock.
