Why This Matters
The Safety is Not For Sale Act ensures that important safety features in vehicles are sold separately from luxury options, making it easier for buyers to choose what they need. This helps protect consumers by promoting transparency in car sales.
If you are buying a car, you will have a clearer choice for essential safety features without paying for extras.
