In this eye-opening episode of Driving Change, Travis Patterson is joined by Dallas attorney Todd Tracy, one of the most experienced crashworthiness lawyers in the world – and the only attorney in the U.S. who operates his own crash lab.
Todd has handled more than 2,700 cases against automakers, and what he’s uncovered should give every parent pause. From collapsing front seats that crush children in rear-end crashes, to three-row SUVs that act like trash compactors in rear impacts, Todd explains how many serious injuries aren’t only caused by the person responsible for the crash – but by vehicles that fail to protect the people inside them.
The conversation covers dangers most families have never been warned about: reclined seats that disable seatbelts and airbags, seatbelt “submarining” injuries in children, and how improper collision repairs can turn a survivable wreck into a life-altering tragedy. Todd also breaks down what parents should ask after a repair, what to look for when buying a used car, and how to spot when a crash may involve a vehicle defect – not just bad luck.
This episode is a must-listen for parents, caregivers, and teen drivers. It will change how you think about car seats, SUVs, safety ratings, and what “safe enough” really means – before your next drive.
