Abstract

This report summarizes the highlights of the tests of current small and large car-to-current production guards, ten car-to-rigid guard tests to determine the effects of speed, guard height, car size, and impact mode on underride and occupant response and two tests of a production energy-absorbing guard. Based on the results of the crash tests and engineering analyses, recommendations are presented for underride guard requirements and compliance test procedures.
