Abstract

The test data presented in this paper, along with other instrumentation records and high-speed motion pictures, demonstrate that the safety devices available in the modern car can significantly reduce the injury potential during many types of automotive collisions. Data being compiled from records of actual traffic accidents are also demonstrating the injury-reducing significance of the safety-design features in the modern car. Such data also are contributing guidance for further refinement and development of specific injury-reducing designs which will be progressively reflected in the cars of the future.
