• Abstract:
  The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) was established by Congress in 1967 to investigate and determine the causes of accidents in all modes of transportation. Since then, the Safety Board has investigated more than 110,000 aviation accidents and thousands of railroad, marine, highway, and pipeline accidents. The Safety Board is responsible for improving and coordinating services to victims' families. Accident investigators gather a wide range of information concerning the circumstances of an accident. Investigators and technical experts analyze this information, along with many other factors pertaining to the event, to determine the probable cause of the accident and to develop safety recommendations aimed at preventing similar accidents. The Safety Board has issued 11,000 recommendations in all transportation modes to more than 1,300 recipients in government, industry, and associations. This publication summarizes many of the Safety Board inspired improvements in transportation. 75 p.
