and remember the national transportation safety board says turbulence is the number one cause of injuries on commercial flights the good news is the data says us airlines have become good at avoiding it. and passengers are really following the rules. the latest data from the faa says 17 people only 17 people suffered serious injuries from turbulence on us flights in 2022 and 2021, that number was six. that was the peak of the pandemic, although number is certainly going to rise with the tsa numbers we've been seeing a record just set last month on june 23rd, and we're likely to set a other air travel record over this weekend with all these people coming home after the july 4th rush the bottom line is when nervous flyers see this or even just a regular flyer, right? they think, oh my gosh, i do not want to go through that. how do aviation experts investigate turbulence? the big thing that they're going to have to do now is pull a black boxes and sort of figure out what the forces the g-forces that they were experiencing in the airplane cabin was like at the time of those incident. the othe

problems at boeing lately, there was the door plug blowout back on january 5th, the national transportation safety board said that boeing did not reinsert the door plug bolts on that 737 max nine that had that blowout on alaska airlines flight 12, 80 to the fuselage was built by spirit aerosystems and independent contract are affiliated with boeing. they essentially had a quality control problem on some rivets near the door plug and then the door plug was taken out at boeing, which led to this major omission at the boeing factory in renton in washington. so by boeing acquiring this company, it essentially brings it in house. it makes it so that boeing has more control here and the quality control has really been at the essence of all the issues at boeing pete man teen at reagan national airport. terrific reporting. as always, pete, thank you very much. so starting today, bars in one state will now be required to offer drug tests that can determine if a drink has been spiked. do details in the potentially lifesaving measure and we are standing by for a pivotal decision from the supreme cordless morning o

it is my understanding that as far back as the 1970's the national transportation safety board recommended studying existing bridges had inadequate structural pier protection. so, we clearly need to have a better understanding of how many other bridges there are out there that could be subjected to the same sort of catastrophic collapse. what has your department been doing to identify these bridges in the late of the baltimore bridge collapse and do you have a comprehensive list? sec. buttigieg: thank you. we are very focused on this. as you know there's attention to this for decades particularly after a similarly catastrophic bridge in franklin 80 in florida which gave rise to the ashto standards which federal regulations pay attention to. they required new bridge construction projects consider the need of design of pier protection. i want to preface anything by acknowledging the ntsb celebrates independently from us and for independently assessing the causes of this incident. it is too soon to know whether any bridge design currently known could have withstand a direct impact of the 248
