The report contains the results of side crash tests performed using a 1988 Ford Taurus and a 1988 Honda Civic into a three bolt slip base type breakaway luminaire support. These tests were performed at the Federal Outdoor Impact Laboratory located in McLean, Virginia. The automobiles impacted the luminaire supports at 30 mi/h (13.41 m/s) at a location on the vehicle that aligned with the side impact dummy's pelvis when the seat was in the midtrack position. Analysis of the data indicates that when impacted from the side into a breakaway luminaire support, the driver of the Ford Taurus would have a greater probability of thoracic injuries than would the driver of the smaller Honda Civic.
