Problem: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

This Act may be cited as the ''Consumer Auto Safety Enhancement Act
of 2010''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

Congress finds the following:
(1) Event data recorders offer important benefits for motor
vehicle safety, such as enabling automatic crash notification
systems for improved emergency responses to crashes, increasing
understanding of vehicle crashworthiness and safe highway
design, and providing greater insight into trends in motor
vehicle defects.
(2) More than 38,000 people die each year on roads in the
United States, and such fatalities could be reduced by taking
full advantage of the benefits of event data recorders.
(3) According to the event data recorder working group of
the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the degree
to which the benefits of event data recorders are realized is
directly proportional to the number of motor vehicles equipped
with such recorders.
(4) Requiring the inclusion of event data recorders in new
motor vehicles would produce valuable safety benefits that
would far outweigh the nominal financial burden on
manufacturers.
(5) The National Transportation Safety Board has
recommended that event data recorders be installed on light
passenger vehicles and on schoolbuses and motorcoaches.

SEC. 3. EVENT DATA RECORDERS.

SEC. 4. REPORT ON FEASIBILITY OF AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION OF EDR DATA.

(a) In General.--Not later than 180 days after the date of the
enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Transportation shall submit to
Congress a report on the feasibility of requiring that, after the
involvement in a crash event of a motor vehicle equipped with an event

analysis is conducted, of systems and capabilities for
automatic electronic transmission of event data recorder data
in the event of a crash and the extent to which it is the
practice of motor vehicle manufacturers to collect such data;
(2) an analysis of any benefits, whether monetary or
nonmonetary, of maintaining a database containing the data that
would be automatically transmitted to the Secretary under the
requirement described in subsection (a);
(3) an analysis of the cost to motor vehicle manufacturers
of complying with such requirement as compared to the cost of
requiring the submission of the same information by means other
than automatic electronic transmission;
(4) the Secretary's recommendation of a reasonable timeline
for manufacturers to comply with the requirement described in
subsection (a); and
(5) an analysis of any privacy issues posed by such
requirement and recommendations for how they might be addressed
or eliminated.
Solution:
Consumer Auto Safety Enhancement Act of 2010 - Directs the Secretary of Transportation (DOT) to promulgate a rule that: (1) requires each motor vehicle manufacturer to equip each motor vehicle manufactured in model year 2012 or later with an event data recorder (EDR) that meets certain specifications; and (2) establishes a universal data retrieval method by which recorded data in an EDR may be retrieved and put into readable form regardless of manufacturer or model of the motor vehicle.

Requires the Secretary to: (1) establish a process by which an individual or entity may transmit EDR data to the Secretary; and (2) create an EDR database for research and analysis.

Directs the Secretary to promulgate a rule that requires each motor vehicle manufacturer to ensure that the data recorded by an EDR in a motor vehicle manufactured before model year 2012 is capable of being read by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

Prohibits the retrieval of data stored in an EDR by any person other than the owner or lessee of the motor vehicle in which such device is installed, unless: (1) a court authorizes it, the owner or lessee consents, or the data is retrieved by a government motor vehicle safety agency; and (2) neither the personally identifiable information of the vehicle owner, lessee,or occupant nor the vehicle identification number (VIN) is publicly disclosed in connection with the data.
