Drive Us Forward: A Conversation with Maria Weston Kuhn

This week we speak with Maria Weston Kuhn, Founder of Drive Us Forward and car crash survivor. Drive Us Forward is a Gen Z led 501(c)(3) non-profit organization advocating for the end of gender inequity in automobile safety standards. Maria tells us about how her experience as a crash survivor led to her activism and to starting the foundation. We hear her perspective and experience when it comes to working with elected officials to address the gender inequities in our policies surrounding car crash testing, the kinds of test dummies we use, and how we can hold government entities accountable for their inaction on the matter.
