Although women face the threat of more injury risks in vehicle crashes, the crash test dummies used in U.S. safety tests are designed almost entirely around the body of a man. Maria Weston Kuhn, a survivor of a near-fatal accident, created a nonprofit to help change that. Her organization is asking members of Congress to sign onto a bill that would mandate the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to upgrade the standards and add a new female dummy. A Michigan-based company called Humanetics has designed one, but the standard tests still involve a dummy from the 1970s based on an average-sized male. Even the company's upgraded male model, adopted by numerous other countries, still hasn't won final U.S. approval.
