The European Enhanced Vehicle-safety Committee (EEVC) and the International Standard Organisation (ISO) have been considering test procedures to evaluate vehicle aggressiveness against pedestrians. Proposals for such procedures have focused mainly on sub-system tests because they seem less expensive, more simple and more repeatable than application of full-scale pedestrian dummies. Experiments were performed in which a Polar (Honda R&D) full-scale dummy was impacted by a medium-size sedan at a speed of 11.1 m/s in order to estimate the risk of injury to the pedestrian's chest and to determine the impact conditions of the head, thigh/waist and leg. The results obtained in these experiments were compared with those reported in the literature for compact car and SUV. The present study suggests the following: the risk of chest injury due to the passenger car impact seems extremly low; the EEVC/WG17 upper legform test procedure seems to overestimate the energy of the impact between the pedestrian waist and SUV front, whereas it appropriately simulates the energy of impact between the pedestrian tigh and front of a medium-size sedan and compact car; and the EEVC/WG17 headform test procedure may overestimate the severity of impact between the car front and the pedestrian's head.
