Abstract Frontal crash sled simulation is performed with Hybrid III dummy and elderly human body model to assess the relative high injury risk of older population. The sled model representing a typical driver side seat with a restraint system is validated against the test result. The current restraint design is tailored to the younger generation and found to be less effective for the older driver. The 48kph frontal crash simulation predicted AIS 4 level chest injury (7 rib fractures) of the elderly driver while 10 % risk of rib fracture was found with the Hybrid III dummy.
