Brazil gov't may backtrack on auto safety laws

FILE - In this June 1, 2012 file photo, vehicles drive on a highway in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The Brazilian government may delay "by one or two years" the implementation of a law forcing automakers to install frontal air bags and anti-lock braking systems in all new cars, the finance minister said Wednesday, Dec. 11, 2013.

(AP Photo/Andre Penner, File)RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — The Brazilian government may delay "by one or two years" the implementation of a law requiring automakers to install frontal air bags and anti-lock braking systems in all new cars, the finance minister said Wednesday.
