According to a reuters report, the safety displays must be on all vehicles, except pickups, no later than September 1, 2007. Which brings up the question as to why not pickups?

According to the article, pickups were overlooked when the laws were written. Apparently, they haven't been around long enough, given they have only been sold as everyday vehicles for over a decade. "Automakers and government officials said" the oversight "would be addressed."

Safety information is located on the NHTSA website (www.nhtsa.gov). The safety data on the new sticker includes data on front and side crash protection and rollover risk.
