I was particularly surprised by another item in the Auditor General’s report—perhaps you are aware of it. He told us about an anchor for a child car seat that had defects and that should have been modified. It seems that it was not, because it would have been bad for business.
Can business take precedence over automobile safety? Is this rather an illustration of the imbalance between the lobbying power of the large manufacturers and the power of motoring associations, consumers, the police, or any other organization that focuses more on safety than business?
