The article reports on an evaluation of the injury reducing effects of side-guard door beams based on accident investigation reports. The evaluation considers two measures of effectiveness: (1) the mean injury severity recorded for the occupants, and (2) the degree of deformation in the door. In each case the analysis controls on contributing factors such as occupant seating location, restraint use, side of the car damaged, and the angle of the impact force. In both cases, results show that it cannot be concluded that side door beams produce an effect on injuries, or on door penetration. (Author)
