In response to the TREAD Act, the agency implemented a pilot program designed to investigate the feasibility of rating child restraints based on dynamic performance. This was accomplished by subjecting child restraints to a 48 km/h (30 mph) sled test under the same test conditions as the FMVSS No. 213 standard (49 CFR Part 571), final rule published June 24th, 2003. The child restraints were tested in various configurations and occupied by dummies of various sizes. The pilot program was conducted under the New Car Assessment Program (NCAP). Results showed little variance between different child restraints tested in the same configuration; however, a more substantial, statistically significant, difference in HIC performance was observed between different configurations of the same child restraint. These results indicate that the agency cannot assume similar results for different configurations of the same child restraint. Most of the dummy injury values fell well under the current injury assessment reference values published in FMVSS No. 213.
