Abstract

Six commercially available carry- cots were tested in conjunction with four different harness systems during head- on collisions at 50 km /h in accordance with ECE- R 44. One of the conclusions is that carry- cots are often not designed for the special case of a collision. The side walls are often too thin and collapse or break; in some cases, hard reinforcements are incorporated into the side walls at unfavourable points.
