Automobiles damaged in collisions in which the main vehicle structure has been underridden or overridden were studied, as well as injuries to occupants of the automobiles. The parameters that affect injuries are listed and discussed, as are the effects of these parameters for each case example.Recommendations are made for modifications of passenger cars, trucks, trailers, and highway furniture to mitigate the severity of injury in underride-override collisions.
