The report presents the results of a 41 mph frontal flat barrier crash test. The vehicle selected for this test was Calspan RSV No. 9. For this test, two calibrated 50th percentile Part 572 instrumented anthropomorphic dummies were placed in the driver and front passenger positions in the car. The occupant automatic restraint system consisted of an air bag mounted in the steering wheel hub for the driver, and an air belt for the passenger. These were supplemented by knee impact padding for each occupant.
