The study identified various design features that contribute to instability and recommended a stable tricycle design with a low seat and wide track rear wheels. The Bureau of Product Safety is drafting mandatory regulations for tricycles and mini-bikes to improve safety for children, as a significant number of children are injured in accidents involving these vehicles each year. Another study is proposed to evaluate and redesign tricycles and mini-bikes for improved safety."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/James%20R.%20Jones%20Collection/James%20R.%20Jones%20Correspondence%20Series,%201968-1986%20/CAC_CC_109_4_22_1_0000-District%20Office,%20Jones%20Clippings,%201973/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_109_4_22_34_0002_thumbnail.jpg "1972 Preliminary Tricycle Safety Study: Identifying Design Improvements for Child Safety")
