Shane’s death was preventable. Dressers were never tested to account for weight of clothing stored inside. New ASTM voluntary standard has manufacturers stability test their products the way we actually use them.

The new ASTM vol. standard will prevent tip-overs like the one that killed PAT mom Keisha's daughter Chance 11 yrs ago today. Had it been mandatory then, it would have saved Chance and hundreds of others. It will save lives! Alex Hoehn-Saric Peter Feldman (CPSC), Commissioner Rich Trumka Jr., Mary Boyle
