NTSB Releases Latest ‘Most Wanted’ List of Safety Improvements

The NTSB released its annual “Most Wanted” list of safety improvements yesterday, with only one change from last year. Fatigue was removed and replaced with “preserving the integrity of transportation infrastructure.” NTSB chairman Deborah Hersman said that changes to the list represent progress made, or acknowledge that there are other areas “ripe for change” in a given year. “We’re releasing the list now so it is available to policymakers at the state and federal levels, as well as industry groups, as they craft their priorities for 2013,” she explained.
