TITLE: FMVSS INTERPRETATION

TEXT: This is in reply to your letter of February 10, 1967.

Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 105 applies only to new passenger cars manufactured January 1, 1968, or later. Although the National Traffic Safety Agency intends to issue additional standards in the future that apply to items of motor vehicle equipment, most of the initial Motor Vehicle Safety Standards issued January 31, 1967, apply to vehicles only, as the application paragraph of each standard specifies.

Please do not hesitate to call upon us if we can be of further service to you.
