The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has proposed a number of revisions
to the Federal safety standard for child restraint systems (Notice of Proposed

Accountability and Documentation Act of 2000 (TREAD), which directed NHTSA to
initiate a rulemaking proceeding for the purpose of improving the safety of child
restraints.
