lic Health and the Law. In the United States,
prior to the 1930s, public health efforts were
primarily undertaken at local and state levels.
After the Great Depression, the federal
government was called upon to intervene on behalf
of its vulnerable populations. Since that time,
debates over federal versus state roles in public
health efforts have taken center stage in
government and politics (Turncock, 2012, 79). For
this assignment, you will examine the role of
state and federal government as it relates to
motor vehicle safety. Review the case study Motor
Vehicle Safety in your course text. Provide a
brief description of laws associated with motor
vehicle safety at the federal level and for your
own state. Identify what type of law it is (e.g.,
constitutional, legislative, administrative, or
judicial). How do these laws relate to public
