The results of four tests of standard automobiles impacting S.A.E. and pole barriers are presented. Two of the test vehicles were full size 1969 Ford sedans and two were 1971 Chevrolet Vega 2300 sedans. Impact velocities were approximately 8 MPH. Three instrumented unrestrained anthropometric dummies were on-board each test vehicle, two in the front seats and one in the right rear position. Passenger compartment accelerations are presented along with accelerations recorded in the head, chest and pelvic areas of the dummies. Occupant accelerations are compared briefly with human tolerance data and it is concluded that no severe injuries would have resulted in the four tests. (Author)
