Bill 119 s 161, also known as the "New Car Assessment Program Testing Procedures Act," is a proposed piece of legislation that aims to improve the testing procedures used in the New Car Assessment Program (NCAP) of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

In addition to addressing testing procedures, the bill also includes provisions for other purposes related to vehicle safety. These provisions are aimed at enhancing overall safety standards and promoting transparency in the automotive industry. Overall, Bill 119 s 161 is focused on improving the safety of new vehicles through updated testing procedures and other related measures. If passed, this legislation has the potential to positively impact consumer safety and awareness when it comes to purchasing a new car.
