`PART 571-FEDERAL MOTOR VEHI-
`CLE SAFETY STANDARDS
`Recodification
`The Motor Vehicle Safety Standards
`formerly contained in § 571.21 of Title
`49 are being recodified and reissued as
`Subpart B of Part 571 ( §§ 571.101 through
`671.302). The recodiflcation is for con-
`venience and ease in incorporatin g fu-
`ture amendments, particularly those
`amendments with future effective dates.
`These sections are keyed to the num-
`bers of the existing standards. Regula-
`tions for concurrent standards bearing
`the same' standard number and becom-
`ing effective at a future date involving
`a time period of a year or more, are iden-
`tified with the suffix "a", "b". etc. The
`suffix will be dropped from the new
`standard when the effective date is
`reached. This in effect denotes a super-
`sedure of the former standard. Amend-
`ments published in the FEDERAL REGISTER
`to these standards are reflected in the
`recodification and have been incorpo-
`rated in these regulations through
`November 11, 1971.

`include a system that uses compressed
`air or vacuum only to assist the driver in
`applying muscular force to hydraulic or
`mechanical components.
