Legislative Alert-Update on Senate Action Related to the Motor Vehicle 
Safety Act, S. 3302

the Motor Vehicle Safety Act, S. 3302 contains rules for making hybrid cars 
have sound so that visually impaired citizens can cross streets without fear 
of being hit by a "quiet" car. For the latest about the law, visit 
www.blog.VirginiaQuietCars.org.

Our representatives are back in session and they can finally return to 
business after months of working to get elected and reelected. We (NFB) are 
also back to work on getting this legislation passed. Keep up with the 
latest!

The website www.VirginiaQuietCars.org was established by the National 
Federation of the Blind of Virginia in order to keep its members and the 
general public informed on vital legislation that directly impacts the 
safety of the blind and nearly all pedestrians.

In order to have full participation in the activities of society, the 
visually impaired must have full access to transportation and to our 
streets. Quiet cars threaten that independence by threatening our safety 
during independent travel. For the latest on the legislation and what your 
National Federation of the Blind is doing to make this law pass and how you 
can help, visit www.VirginiaQuietCars.org.
