Best Answer

In 1965 and 1966, public pressure grew in the US to increase the safety of cars. In 1966, Congress held a series of hearings regarding highway safety and passed legislation to make seat belts mandatory, and created several agencies which would eventually become the National Highway Safety Act in 1970.
