Abstract

This paper presents information on analytical procedures being developed by the national highway traffic safety administration (NHTSA) to assess the safety problem associated with occupants of passenger cars involved in frontal impacts. Preliminary analytical results are presented on the relationship between steering assembly structural attributes and injury severity. Comparisons of the fleet simulation results and accident data from the national crash severity study (NCSS) and the national accident sampling system (NASS) are also presented.
