Abstract
This paper provides an overview of NHTSA's rollover crashworthiness research program. This program emphasizes reducing ejections through door openings and side windows. Opportunities to reduce occupant-to-vehicle interior contacts are investigated through improved restraints, reduced roof crush, and improved upper interior head protection (Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard Number 201 upgrade, FMVSS 201)
