March has been a momentous month for truck underride. Continuing along that line, the STOP Underrides! Bill has been re-introduced to Congress by its sponsors, Senators Gillibrand and Rubio and Representatives Cohen and DeSaulnier, on March 5.

See Senator Gillibrand’s Press Release here and Senator Rubio’s here.

To convince Congress of the importance of this bill to end Death By Underride, we will be hosting an Underride Crash Test Event in Washington, D.C., starting at 10:00 a.m. on March 26 (watch for livestreaming from Eric Flack & WUSA 9).
