The Washington, D.C.-based Center for Auto Safety has chosen Jason Levine to be its executive director.
Levine succeeds long-time CAS chief Clarence Ditlow, who died last November. Levine spent several years at the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission during the Obama administration. He most recently was director of the U.S. Office of Personnel Management’s congressional, legislative and Intergovernment affairs, according to his LinkedIn page.
CAS was founded in 1970 as a consumer advocacy group by Consumers Union and safety activist Ralph Nader. The group publishes the annual Car Book that reports on safety ratings, prices, insurance cost and other measures of new cars.
