The article discusses passive testing regulations for new vehicles, which were introduced to improve vehicle safety. Passive tests are designed to measure a vehicle’s ability to protect its occupants in the event of a crash. European Union regulations require car manufacturers to subject their vehicles to rigorous passive testing before putting them on the market. These tests include crash tests that simulate different crash conditions to assess vehicle toughness and safety, the results of these tests are then published to allow consumers to compare the safety performance of different vehicle models. Car manufacturers are also evaluated on the results of these tests and can be penalized if they fail to meet established safety standards. Passive testing regulations have made significant progress in vehicle safety. Modern vehicles are equipped with advanced safety technologies such as airbags, pre-tensioner seat belts and child restraint systems, which were developed in response to the results of these tests.
