Dear President Biden: Motor vehicle safety must be an infrastructure priority
Delaware News Journal
Dear President Biden:
Like you, we are families who have suffered the death or injury of a child, spouse or loved one because of a car or truck crash, hot car incident or seatback failure. And, like you we are committed to saving others from experiencing our profound loss. Affordable technological solutions to stop these senseless deaths and injuries should be available to everyone regardless of where you live or your income level.
As Congress moves toward passage of one of your key priorities transportation and infrastructure legislation we urge you to ensure that critical vehicle safety remedies are included in the bill you sign into law.

EVANSVILLE, Ind. (AP) Andrew and Jamie Dill want to make sure other families never have to experience what they went through almost two years ago.
Their 3-year-old son Oliver, also known as “Ollie,” died after being forgotten in a car on the University of Southern Indiana campus in 2019.
Now the Dills are working locally and with national advocacy groups to raise awareness around hot car deaths and ways to prevent them.
Andrew and Jamie recently went public with a nonprofit organization called Be Kind For Ollie, which they established to educate the public about the dangers of leaving children and pets in vehicles.
