Struggling to find the paper with actual tests, but there was a separate statistical analysis backing this up, and here's a link to another paper confirming those results: https://docs.iza.org/dp8590.pdf

Because it's a huge chunk of the labs revenue, and there are other labs the companies would want to work with. Then the automakers who make up the rest of the labs business are now potentially liable for kids fitting without a car seat, instead of being able to transfer that liability to the car seat makers. What is the moral thing to do and what are you incentivized to do are very often opposite.

It just causes far less headaches for automakers to keep the existing laws mandating child safety seats, so the liability can be transferred to other companies that now have a reason to exist, and you have a way of feeling better by spending $500 on the fancy seat instead of 100 bucks on a cheap one that works just as well.

After the fall of humanity, the next intelligent species will think Black Rhinos were space faring.

If the parent had line of sight on the baby, would they have forgotten about him?

Serious question: with today's cars and car seats, radically different survivability in crashes compared to when car seat laws were passed, would more children die from accidents with front facing seats or no car seats at all? I've heard about crash tests done in secret showing the answer is there is no measurable difference with modern bucket seats.

They forgot to reserve their right to (literally) hold the gun to their politicians heads. Took back all the power over themselves, just hand it over to some new guys with no durable strings attached.

Still doing pretty damn well compared to countries like Hungary who came full circle in a matter of years.

If fusion 360, solid works, OR solid Edge ran on Linux I'd deal with the annoyances.

Talking about a politician who insider-trades her way to tens of millions in gains each year.

The real fix here is to ban speculative trading on anything with either industrial or everyday use (like metals and real estate).

From the screen grabs, Since when is a legally street parked RV a homeless encampment? Looks like picking low hanging fruit for campaign talking points.

Something tells me PRE-teen pregnancies are a bigger problem than whoever's having sex with kids under-13 not using birth control.

In elections where 30% of people turn out right now, that's a hell of a lot of random, and people aren't actually that random, on a list of 10 candidates you can guarantee the "random" votes will cluster visually and the same 1-2 positions on the physical layout will always win.
