Five intersection-type collision experiments were conducted at 40 mph to provide data on several categories of collision performance and interactions of passenger heads with car windshields and side-glass; instrumentation included 60 channels of force and acceleration data, supported by photographic coverage of 40 cameras; tri-axial accelerometers, mounted in anthropometric dummy heads and chests, and strain gages bonded to windshields facilitated data collection on relative collision performances of different types of safety glass.
