These tests are crap. Roof strength is only one aspect of rollover safety. In order to measure how a car will actually perform in a rollover we need to launch the car off an angled platform and let the car roll on its own, not on some glorified meat rods. We also need to measure head, neck, and chest injury criterion.
Airbags dont deploy on roll-overs, unless there is an impact in the front or sides of the car first.....and yes there is a curtain airbag in that section of the car...
the 2009 mondeo has curtain air-bags and side body airbags...only in a rollover only the head airbag deploys. only in a side impact crash will the head AND body airbags deploy.
ouch my head!!!
