In 12 side impact tests, four newly developed side impact dummies (APROD 82, HSRI,MIRA,ONSER) were positioned at the impact side of the car, with the interacting dummy- a Hybrid II dummy- on the offside. The kinematics of the side impact dummies are more humanlike in side impacts than those of the Hybrid II dummy which was used in a previous test program on the impact side.
