and uds cleesh to me that nitsa needs higher penalty authorities. we need to make certain that the penalty for not reporting a safety defect is a sufficient threat to deter auto companies from needlessly delays safety decisions. fixes in these areas like the tsb's public improving, early-warning report data and increasing penalty should be easy for us to agree upon and with the seconds i have remaining, gm rault website indicates that even after the new switch is installed customers should, quote, only utilize the key, key ring and key to be if equipped, that came with the vehicle. ms. barra, mr. consumers have key chains with multiple keys. why if the new replacement switch is adequate does gm still recommend that consumers not use their full key rings the way they would normally use them? >> the system has been validated and as i have gone 24r50u this process over the last three months i have seen incredible things on key chains that across the industry, i think this is an industry issue we have to hook at. i notice key chains everywhere i go now

i think the answer to this is for nitsa to set up a thing where general motors has knowledge of this they can contact them anonymously and tell them what they know. there are people in the corporation who are too scared to talk, have tried to talk and been beaten down and who know all the details that need to be known. and as muches miss barra might want to get people to phone that to her i don't think they will do it. i don't think the atmosphere is conducive to that. nitsa needs to set up a hotline, let general motors people send in what they know, check out the documentation and take care of it. i know i'm lying, people are saying they won't buy general motors cars any more. that's not tans. general motors has to be fixed because if you're driving a nongeneral motors car on the road and there are general motors cars around you, you're in the ball game. >> my thanks to bill mcaleer. we reached out to general motors for a comment on our exclusive skbrir with william mcaleer. if mcaleer's concerns were submitted by an employee today, they would be thoroughly investigated within the s

could be fairly significant, much larger than the 35 million that the department of transportation and nitsaevies against them last month. >> this whole company whether they could be charged with murder arises in part from the legal theory that corporations are actually persons under the law. >> mm-hmm. >> as in the political funding case. am i right about that, ben? >> yeah. so if corporations are people under one circumstance, you know, are they under another? and that's the question that has to be answered in terms of whether or not they can be charged with a crime like manslaughter. >> so this would be unprecedented, then, if something like this were to really happen, aside from what we were just talking about with the bp thing. it's, you know, very rarely do you hear of a corporation being charged, or even senior executives. >> yeah, it's definitely very rare because like i said, there's sort of a very specific set of facts they have to find. and that can be difficult to prove. >> ben guyer, thank you very much for being with us. ben guyer is a fortune.com reporter. >> thanks for having

nitsa basically sell to all supplies saying there have been some complaints regarding a select numberde the jeep commando 05-06 grand cherokee, as well as 2008-2010 grand caravan. it's simply an investigation into the possibility that the key could slip from the run position to the accessory position. , but this is what we're going to see in the industry. a lot of questions about what exactly is going on with all ignition switches. >> i was going to say, phil, are you surprised by the sheer extent of the recallings this year? we've talked about it before. >> no, not at all. >> another 3 million this week. >> no, because nhtsa was exposed for not being hard enough on the automakers, and result automakers are taking a zero-tolerance approach. anything close to a recall get it out. >> thank you very much, phil lebeau. >> >>> janet yellen meets the press. we'll take you to her news conference when this special edition of "street signs" returns. the dow is up 22 points. not a big market reaction now, but the fed's words carry a lot of weight. they're coming up. stick around.

nitsa say they think the number is bigger and how much will they be compensated?nt saying he's already begun this process. he'll be meeting privately with gm and with everyone involved, trying to get their feedback on his early ideas he has on paper. but the company would like to start taking claims by august 1st, so there's a lot of work to do this summer. >> poppy harlow and christine romans, many thanks. >>> a u.s. navy pilot is in stable condition. the pilot was on approach to an aircraft carrier when the plane went down last night. this crash happened just hours after another military jet slammed into a california neighborhood. flames and black smoke rose from the wreckage in the street. three homes were destroyed. another eight had to be evacuated. amazingly enough, no one on the ground was hurt and the pilot survived. he ejected safely, was taken to a hospital where he was treated for minor injuries. a witness described what happened just before impact. >> all of a sudden, i see the cab pop off of a small burst of flames. and i saw the pilot eject. i see th

nitsa is looking at you and other moderate risk here? >> it's a part of our improve.eral years and learning from that. we have been adding people out in the field of suppliers and here in dearborn in the engineering center. it's independent of what's going on from our competitors. >> the president of ford in americas is joining us, you just got a new pros starting in a couple of days, right? >> it's a busy life. mark will be excited having the ceo last woke he has been doing the rounds, immediateing all our people, saying good bye. we will miss him. we are excited about the future as well. >> thank you for joining us. >> that vehicle by the way comes on the mark early next year and it will be interesting to see how that does if a market increasingly competitive when it comes to cross joefrs. >> phil, thank you very much, mark fields is a rutgers grut, too. >> oh, look at that. you rutgers people. >> populating everywhere. >> i will write that down. >> another liberal arts education president. >> i'm going to write it down. >> older than the country. >> you can see rut

the motion specifically adds money to knit did a's administration account -- nitsa's administration account. simply throwing money at a problem will not solve the problem. we have an opportunity in the next surface transportation and re-authorization bill to look t n.t.s. -- ntsa's authority and regulatory ability. it's kind of a surprise to have this motion now. we've gone through two days under totally open rule. this could have been considered in regular order. this, mr. speaker, is just an effort to grind the appropriations process bills to a halt and i urge my colleagues to reject this motion and pass h.r. 4745 today. and i yield back the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from iowa yields back his time. without objection, the previous question is ordered on the motion to recommit. the motion is on the -- the question is on the motion to recommit. those in favor say aye. those opposed, no. in the opinion of the chair, the noes have it. ms. esty: mr. speaker, i ask for a recorded vote. the speaker pro tempore: a recorded vote has been requested. all those in favo

the results led to nitsa's decision to proceed with vehicle to vehicle, v to v technology for light duty vehicles. this technology will improve safety and has the potential to reduce nonimpaired fatalities by up to 80%. the department continues to work toward connected vehicle applications for heavy duty vehicles and the federal highway administration is preparing to issue guidance in 2015 for instaug vehicle to infrastructure, v to i applications, for roadway safety at improved traffic operations. i note that all this success and the standards that support it are based upon the availability of the 5.9 gigahertz dedicated short range communication spectrum. our utc's continue bringing invasion to the transportation system and developing the next generation of transportation leaders. we are extremely pleased with the nationwide conshore that of university selected under the open competition enabled by map 21. covering over 120 universities which bring expertise and multiple disciplines, utc has enabled smcht systemic interdisciplinary cross-moto research we need to address increasingly co
