	Extraordinary Movie & Video Guide - Crash Test
		Writer is given a new name, 171096 and he will suffer violent acts (just imagine what human crash test dummy has to do!) but in the end, he starts to fight back with the help of veteran crash test dummy.
		The beginning and the very end are the strongest parts in Crash Test, while in the middle of the film the tempo goes down and the pace of rhythm suffers because of it.
		Crash Test has still more balls and originality than most of the modern Hollywood sci-fi wannabe's.

	Definition of Crash test
		Often crash test dummies representing humans are placed into the vehicle seats to determine whether or not a human in the crash would have been seriously injured or killed.
		Crash tests are conducted under rigorous scientific and safety standards.
		Each crash test is very expensive so the maximum amount of data must be extracted from each test.

	A Crash Course in Crash-Test Ratings - ForbesAutos.com
		In the IIHS’ frontal offset crash test, a dummy is mounted into the driver’s seat and 40 percent of the total width of the vehicle strikes a barrier on the driver’s side at 40 mph.
		Test dummies used in the side-impact test are the size of a small fifth-percentile female or 12-year-old adolescent to measure the worst-case scenario head injury from the front of the oncoming vehicle.
		The IIHS does not test for rollover likelihood, but the Institute is now testing for the likelihood of head or whiplash injury as the result of a rear-end collision — a particular concern for the insurance industry.

		For side impact safety, vehicles are tested using a moving barrier that strikes the vehicle at a speed of 31 mph.

	Introducing the crash test dummy
		In fact, the science behind crash test dummies, and the standards that they must meet, is so sophisticated that they can cost up to £100,000 to build.
		For this reason the science behind crash test dummies, which were first invented in the United States, is precise so that the results are accurate across a whole range of vehicles.
		Whether they're used in Japan, the UK, or Australia, crash test dummies must all meet the same standards, right down to their dress code-while on the job, no dummy is found in the company car unless they're clad in a form-fitting cotton stretch short sleeved shirt and mid-calf length trousers, worn with size 11EE shoes.

	What Crash Test Scores Mean (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		To evaluate head restraints during rear crashes, the IIHS places a dummy in the vehicle's seat, which is then placed on a sled that simulates a stationary vehicle being struck from the rear at 20 mph by a vehicle of similar weight.
		The vehicle being tested strikes a deformable barrier on the driver side at 40 mph, which means the forces are similar to a frontal offset crash between two vehicles of the same weight that are each traveling at just under 40 mph.
		In this test, a dummy the size of an average adult male is placed in the vehicle's seat, which is then placed on a sled that simulates a stationary vehicle being struck from the rear at 20 mph by a vehicle of similar weight.

		Whether you're a novice P-plater or a highly experienced driver, the chance of crashing with another vehicle, object or person is an ever-present risk of taking to the roads.
		Crashes have consequences for your own health and property, and frequently someone else's too.
		If there's any consolation in crashing in a light car, it's that they do the least damage, generally speaking, to the things they hit, with the lowest aggression ratings towards other road users.

	Safety group drops front-crash test - The Boston Globe
		Automakers score so well on a front-crash test that a safety group is doing away with it for most vehicles, saying the assessments no longer give consumers useful information.
		Ending the test lets the insurer-funded group direct more money to other safety areas, such as side-impact crashes, rollovers, and front crashes into poles.
		About half of 80 tested in the mid-1990s rated in the two lowest categories, ''marginal" and ''poor." Automakers since strengthened passenger compartments and made front ends crush a little more easily, he said.

		Automakers conduct hundreds of crash tests every year to assess the safety of their vehicles and evaluate their vehicles' compliance with federal regulations.
		In recent years, the time-consuming and delicate process of conducting crash tests has been getting a little easier thanks to improved sensors and instrumentation on the dummies.
		In the past, engineers setting up the tests had a number of sensors connected to the dummies that were channeled into a data recorder either outside the vehicle or inside the trunk.

		Tilman Jolly, professor of emergency medicine at George Washington University, was quoted as saying, If you are going to use crash dummies to test an air bag, you need to have dummies that are representative of humans multiple sizes.
		The new crash tests will take into account a number of factors, including the fact that women tend to be smaller than men and are therefore more likely to sit closer to the wheel and thus closer to the airbag.

		The Spectra, a small, four-door sedan that starts at $13,240, got the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's lowest rating of poor after a crash test dummy's head, chest and legs were injured in the 40 mph crash test.
		The institute tests vehicles in a 40 mph crash and rates them based on three criteria: the amount the vehicle crumples into the driver's space, injuries to the crash test dummy and a slow-motion analysis of how well the seat belt worked.
		Most of those cars were tested earlier by the insurance institute, which tests vehicles as they are redesigned.
