There Auto Be A Law

Our podcast discusses auto safety issues and technological developments, in hopes of providing consumers and enthusiasts with a better understanding of modern vehicles, safety systems, and current issues in the industry.

Every week listen to Executive Director Michael Brooks, Chief Engineer Fred Perkins and host Anthony Cimino as they discuss a range of auto safety issues including self-driving cars, airbag propellants, vehicle weight and everything else car related.

How will tariffs affect auto industry safety? Less new car sales equals less newer safety tech on the road. China is enforcing tighter controls on over-the-air (OTA) updates compared to the U.S.'s 'wild west' approach. Plus a flying car, a cybertruck that wants to die and recalls from Mercedes-Benz and Volkswagen.
