The report presents the test procedures and results of the crash test of two General Motors experimental safety vehicles in a front-to-side configuration. The test consisted of a forward-moving vehicle impacting a like stationary vehicle at 29.60 mph. The objectives of the test were to establish the structural responses of both the striking and struck vehicles and to establish the side intrusion characteristics of the struck vehicle.
