Could you please let me know of the followings for our understanding on FMVSS 208?

1. Is it true that the belt fastening law now goes into a part of the federal law?

2. Is it true that the cars with airbag do not need to perform "Roll Over Test"?

I am looking forward to receiving your repy by return.
