As an example as you know, hand-in-hand with the technological advancements (facilitating improved fuel economy, etc.) are requirements for more sophisticated "x-by wire" safety standards. As vehicles do more and more "thinking", industry safety standards must keep up (and ahead) of this new technology. WOULD YOU CONSIDER MY NOMINATION FOR YOU AS OUR NATION's CAR CZAR???????

Thank you for the “Promises, Promises” points you made:

Yes, the consideration and legislation requires more stringent CAFE requirements, involvement of experts among the “interested parties”, and further emphasis on safety.

As an example as you know, hand-in-hand with the technological advancements (facilitating improved fuel economy, etc.) are requirements for more sophisticated “x-by wire” safety standards. As vehicles do more and more “thinking”, industry safety standards must keep up (and ahead) of this new technology.

WOULD YOU CONSIDER MY NOMINATION FOR YOU AS OUR NATION’s CAR CZAR???????
