Abstract

Occupant compartment designs and restraint systems are both of central importance in reducing occupant deaths and injuries. Motor vehicle compartments should be designed to minimize the likelihood of occupant ejection, occupant compartment intrusion, and occupant impacts with hostile structures inside the compartment. It is stated that Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 201 should be up-graded to force use of far less hazardous designs.
