The report contains the results of a side impact crash test involving a 1982 Dodge Colt and an energy dissipating ESV luminaire support. The test was performed at the Federal Outdoor Impact Laboratory located in McLean, Virginia. The automobile impacted the ESV pole at 29.9 mph on the driver's side door. The impact location was aligned with the side impact dummy's shoulder with the seat in the midtrack position. The test data indicates that the hypothetical driver of this vehicle would be subjected to acceptably low values of impact velocity with the vehicle interior, ridedown accelerations, and head accelerations. The thoracic injury analysis, however, yielded a high Thoracic Trauma Index which corresponds with a high probability of the occurrence of a life threatening injury.
