  8. US Policy on ESC Nicole Nason, the NHTSA Administrator, believes ESC to be “the greatest life saving technology since the seat belt” and has proposed a Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) that will make ESC mandatory in all US passenger cars by model year 2012. NHTSA estimate that ESC will only cost the consumer $111 and would: - reduce single-vehicle crashes of passenger cars by 34 percent and single vehicle crashes of sport utility vehicles by 59 percent; - save 5.300 to 10.300 lives and prevent 168.000 to 252.000 injuries in all types of crashes annually if all light vehicles on US roads were equipped with ESC systems. NHTSA has proposed a Global Technical Regulation (GTR) at the World Forum for Harmonization of Vehicle Regulation (UNECE WP29) based on their FMVSS.
