"NSC leaders know first-hand of David's passion for saving lives and his leadership ability," said NSC President & CEO Janet Froetscher.
"David's management and leadership of the Air Bag & Seat Belt Safety Campaign was a key part of its success."

keeping people safe by preventing injuries and deaths wherever they may occur -- at work, in homes, communities and on the
