Child restraint systems : frontal impact performance.

This report covers the first part of a series of investigation on child restraint systems. In order to define the impact performance of different systems 34 frontal impact tests were made with 25 systems. Impact speed was 30 mph and the deceleration level 15-20 g. The relatively low deceleration level and the use of soft standard car seats are considered important to simulate the dynamic interactions. (See also B 4805 and B 4806).
