Abstract
The United States recently announced their final rule to impact vehicles laterally into poles to evaluate their crashworthiness. What are the similarities and differences between this test procedure and the Euro NCAP Pole test procedure? The paper will explore the intricacies of the test procedure, test dummies, test equipment and methods used to meet these two similar but different requirements.
