Details Information

Abstract:	Federal Register Publication revising selected Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards by converting English measurements specified in those standards to metric measurements. This is one of several rulemaking actions that NHTSA is undertaking to implement the federal policy that the metric system of measurement is the preferred system of weights and measures for United States trade and commerce. The conversions are not intended to make any changes in the stringency of the affected FMVSS. A companion final rule published in today's Federal Register converts English measurements in selected safety standards on tires to metric measurements. Effective Date: May 27, 1998
