A more appropriate target would have been the Feds for the CAFE standards. Of course in a sane world, which we no longer have, the blame would have been 50% on the drunk teen and 50% on her for getting in the car with a drunk driver.

She claims that the lap belt wasn’t enough and the car should have had a shoulder harness also. Blame the Feds for not mandating it, not the car maker!

I absolutely agree! Why did she get in a car driven by a drunk, much less a drunk teenager! I do NOT see that it is Toyota’s fault. Their vehicle’s safety belts met the standards put out by the government.
