Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx, with new crash test dummies called 'THOR', during the announcement for plans to update its safety rating system for new cars to include whether the car has technology to avoid crashes, in addition to how well it protects occupants in accidents in Washington, Tuesday, Dec. 8, 2015. In addition, the crash tests will be improved to include accidents in which cars collide at an angle, and they will use improved crash-test dummies that better represent how accidents impact the human body. And the rating system will reward cars designed to protect pedestrians who are struck by them.(AP Photo/Pablo Martinez Monsivais)
