Notice how the SUV hits the pedestrian dummy fairly high on the body, throwing him out in front (possibly to get run over by the SUV). A sedan would hit the pedestrian lower down in the legs, sending the pedestrian over the top rather than out front. This is one reason why trucks and SUVs tend to be deadlier for pedestrians than cars, and gives the engineers more of a challenge to reduce the damage they do. Of course, if the vehicle is speeding too fast, any design will be deadly.
@PedAdvocate bumper air bags could help. They could be triggered by distance sensors on the front. Maybe they could be made strong enough to cushion accidental hits while parking too without even scratching paint. It could cost more than they are willing to spend but it wouldn't need to be as reliable as normal airbags since faulty deployment of a bumper bag shouldn't hurt anyone and lack of deployment would be no more harmful than current bumpers.
@IARRCSim you'd have to make them deploy with enough margin to avoid literally shooting the pedestrian away from the car, but without making the pedestrian touch the car. I don't think it's feasible: at speed even a soft bag will hurt you and making them deploy at the right time would be hard.
One time i was riding my bike and then i got hit by a car and i flew like a few feet off my bike o_o but i only broke a knee and had a few bruises :'(
ppffff that is nothing..... my family member got struck as he was just running lol and brutally got tossed 14 feet
he was in icu for 1 week..... coma and 2 blood clothes in his head along with a rod in his leg however he is handicapped cant walk too long ..... may have to use crutches when old and have anger issues after such trauma
I have an idea, paint your car an obnoxious color and make the exhaust nice and loud. That way they will never be able to claim they didn't see you coming.
This is actually really interesting and I never stopped to think of peds. I'm not sure why most below watched it as they obviously didn't like the video.
they cant make great models of humans...different people bleed more or less...also think about your muscles...your body isnt limp like a dummy, and if your leg gets pushed the wrong way the muscles push back...its really hard to be accurate but its nice to know they are trying hard to be safe...sure they do it all for the money but id pay more to know that im not gonna kill anyone if i make mistakes...
Spending 1 million bucks on predestrian dummies is just plain dum. Use that money to help develop technology to help cut cost and do actual crash test...not pedestrian tests.
Ppl who get hit by cars while walking is retarded and needs to get off the road.
fyi, before calling anybody dumb, (notice how i spelled dumb correctly) you should check your grammar. ie: ppl who get hit by cars while walking ARE (not is) retarded.
I don't see how a test like this is going to change the way they make cars. People in general should just try to not stand in the middle of streets ;)
Unfortunately, how many people are actually gonna take their friend's keys and prevent them from driving while under the influence? I've done it, but i've never met anyone else who has.
I've seen people get hit and come out with minor injuries. Others have died, some have been hospitalized, but some just come out with some road rash and some bruises and soreness for a few days
you right.........but guess is another way for honda trying to marketing them cars.... spending money on nonsense test dummy. just to make me feel better about not hurting someone on street with them cars ....I see people getting kill by straight fist fight or ever getting hurt badly.
I've even almost been hit by a car that just ignored a friggin crosswalk. I watched a guy barely miss getting hit by a car that was speeding and ignored the crosswalk and the red light.
Would it not be easier to hang it by an electromagnet that is just powerful enough to hold the dummies weight? Engineers make things sooo complicated sometimes....
I dont spend money to save the other guy, I spend money to save my ass.... Who cares about pedestrians..... Ha Ha!!! Japan doesnt understand the American spirit....
I do agree that most people spend more money to save themselves and family inside, but protecting people on the outside is good too. If you do less to someone outside of the car means you will get sued for less if you do get sued.
Thanks,but thats what they are using plastic and metal and why does everyone want to get in a fight I mean if someone points out the what most people know you just ignore them gosh instigators
Good thing most pedestrians are bros flexing and showing off their muscles in the middle of the street!!!
