Development of an Australian design rule for offset frontal crash protection /

ADR 69 for full frontal impact protection is already in place in Australia and will test the vehicle's restraint system in a high deceleration crash situation. This ADR will continue in parallel with an ADR on offset frontal crash protection. The offset test will test the vehicle's structu...
