“Women across Nebraska and the nation will be safer because of Senator Fischer. The reintroduction of the She DRIVES Act is a monumental step towards finally making cars safe for women,’ said @mariawkuhn, Founder and President of Drive US Forward.” 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Senator Deb Fischer@SenatorFischer

Women are 17% more likely to be killed in auto crashes than men. But that doesn’t have to be the case. Our bill will update crash test dummy standards, saving thousands of lives & preventing thousands more serious injuries. fischer.senate.gov/public/index.c…

While it’s true that female fatalities in crashes are decreasing in some states, there is still a *significant* and *preventable* disparity in injury&fatality rates between men and women in crashes. That’s why we need to pass the #SheDRIVESAct ASAP! @driveUSforward
Everything Price Sufferer (but especially eggs)@agraybee

Yeah it is actually, female deaths in car crashes immediately dropped once we started testing safety features with test dummies that had a woman's weight distribution.

"The She DRIVES Act would advance technological innovations in crash testing and make cars safer for women. Today, women are 17% more likely to be killed and 73% more likely to be severely injured than men in the same crash. The She DRIVES Act has the potential to address.." 2/4

Women are more likely to be killed/injured in a car crash than men. The Maine-based nonprofit @driveUSforward is trying to change that, by getting more accurate female dummies inside vehicles during crash testing. More: wgme.com/news/local/mai…

Women are 73% more likely to be seriously injured in auto crashes than men, but that doesn’t have to be the case. Our bill will update crash test dummy standards to save thousands of lives and prevent thousands more serious injuries each year. fischer.senate.gov/public/index.c…
