YOURS TRULY,

U.S. DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION National Highway Traffic Safety Administration

February 22 1973

Gentlemen:

We apologize for replying so late to your letter dated September 26th 1972 about our comments to Docket 70-7 (Notice 2).

Most of the tests which are mentioned in details in our comments have been realized by our company and have therefore no official signification. Concerning this matter detailed investigations have been conducted by the Medical Superintendent of the "Augenabteilung und der verkehrsmedizinisch-ophthalmologischen Untersuchungsstelle am(Illegible Word) Krankenhaus Othmarsche (Hamburg)" Priv.-Doz. Dr. Gramberg-Daniclsen. Owing to printing and editing reasons these investigations will be published in April 1973 only, in the "Klinische Monatsblatter fur Augenheilkunde" by Ferdinand Enke. In order to avoid a further waste of time we send you, enclosed, a copy of this manuscript, which shows that the thickness of the wires does not affect the driver.

We hope that this information will be helpful in your analysis of comments to the above mentioned Docket.

Sincerely, SEKURIT-Glas Union GmbH.

Encl.
