On April 1, 1975, the National Transportation Safety Board became a totally independent Federal agency. This report commemorates the 30th anniversary of the agency's independence and highlights some of the thousands of transportation safety improvements that have resulted from NTSB accident investigations and recommendations. Accidents have been prevented, lives saved, and injuries reduced because of NTSB-inspired safety advances in all modes of transportation: aviation, highway, marine, railroad, and pipeline. The report also gives a brief history of the Safety Board, its responsibilities, and the legislation that created it, that strengthened its independence and that has expanded its safety role over the years. Another section highlights the 'Most Wanted List' and focuses on additional safety advances that the Safety Board strongly believes are needed to increase transportation safety. A list of the most prominent conferences and information-sharing meetings that have been sponsored by the Safety Board are included, as is a list of all 35 Board Members who have served on the Safety Board to date.
