Pocas veces podemos contemplar el caos de muerte que nos ofrece este vídeo en el interior de un vehículo, aunque en esta ocasión lo protagonizan dummies. Tal como puede verse, se puede sacar la conclusión de que, ni uno de los ocupantes, sin el cinturón de seguridad, termina vivo al final de la secuencia. Lo peor es que esto ocurre en la realidad sin que, por ello, tomemos conciencia de nuestra responsabilidad.

  • Believe it or not this car was better than the standard of the day demanded. This test was at 30mph and done to show what happened to unrestrained passengers. The standard of the day demanded that the steering wheel move no more than 5" inwards. The cabin remained intact and the steering wheel moved only 2/half" upwards. In '76 TRRL did a crash test comparison with 10 cars of this class and this car came 2nd. It looks bad by today's standards but back in its day many cars were worse than this.

  • Leyland Princess 2, not austin princess

  • baby wonted to see what the wall looked like

  • 3mph crash test in a Princess= not good....

  • no laminated windscreen on that layland so far as i could see

  • That's interesting, thanks for that. I remember seeing this piece of film years ago.

  • This is part of an advert for fitting seatbelts and child safety seats circa 1982. Two Princesses were used, V2 without seatbelts and V3 with seatbelts. The two crashes and what happenned to the dummies were compared.

    The two Princesses may even have been the last on the production line as in late 1981 British Leyland switched over to the Ambassader but several Princesses were not registered until 1982.

  • everyone died

  • mmm...not bad

  • I LIKE THE WAY THE CHILD WENT THROUGH THE WINDSCREEN, I MUST GET ME ONE OF THOSE CARS!

  • No wonder the car crashed, there was nobody driving it - let the message be clear, cars without drivers will crash!

  • The Austin Princess, fitted with rear ejector seats!
