The report contains the results of a side impact crash test involving a 1984 Honda Civic Si and an eccentric loader breakaway cable guardrail terminal (ELT). The test was performed at the Federal Outdoor Impact Laboratory located in McLean, Virginia. The automobile impacted the ELT at 32 mph (51.5 km/h) on the driver's side door. The test data indicate 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 extensive intrusion of the passenger compartment, however, would place the occupant in such a collision at grave risk of serious injury.
