Let us be sure that those who come after will say of us in our time, that in our time we did everything that could be done. We finished the race; we kept them free; we kept the faith. Ronald Reagan

The Toyota Circus

Was Toyota negligent?  I don’t know.  Did Toyota react too slowly to information about defects?  I don’t know.

But I know the following:

  1. Congressional hearings will provide little or no useful information concerning these questions.
  2. It serves no legitimate purpose to have family members of accident victims testify before the U.S. Congress.
  3. The U.S. government needs to get out of the automotive business as soon as possible.
  4. I’ll buy another Toyota before I buy car from GM or Chrysler.
