Abstract
This notice amends Standard No. 210, Seat Belt Assembly Anchorages, to eliminate the sole exception to the requirement in paragraph S4.1.2 for the installation of anchorages for either a Type 1 or a Type 2 seat belt assembly at any designated seating position for which Standard No. 208, Occupant Crash Protection, requires the installation of a Type 1 or a Type 2 seat belt. The sole exception is for passenger seats in buses. The practical effect of Standard No. 210's not requiring anchorages for the bus passenger seats is that the anchorages for the Type 1 seat belt assemblies required at passenger seats in small buses are not currently required to comply with the strength, location and other performance requirements of Standard No. 210. This final rule will correct this oversight.
