When bureaucracy kills: When will our government act to keep women safe?

A personal account describes how a wrong-way crash led to severe injuries and raises questions about car-safety bias against women. The writer says her husband and son were better protected by seatbelts and airbags, while she and her daughter suffered gravely, including a traumatic brain injury. After researching, she cites data that women are 17% more likely to die and 73% more likely to be seriously injured in crashes. She explains that “biofidelic” female crash-test dummies weren’t required until 2011, and claims U.S. manufacturers don’t use them to earn top ratings without them. She also says she contacted a data officer in the Biden White House.
