    "They ( American crash-test authorities ) issue rollover ratings for new cars PROBABLY because they love driving around in tall wobbly SUVs so much" Rather than making a smarmy comments like this based on a biased assumption, maybe you should demand your government to make safer cars than those death traps that you tested.

    ​@@fanoboss 😅..their roads in the UK are narrow due to they ARE paved over horse & buggy lanes. Give me steel to surround me & my loved ones. Plus, rollovers are caused by overcorrecting while driving off the pavement. Inertia plus speed? Bam, bi**h...every time. Arms cut off, heads crushed hitting the pavement...yeah. I've driven full size Chevrolet pickups since my now 35 plus adult children were toddlers. Steel kept us alive & being an EMT/FF made me wise. Car safety tests are one of this country's best government programs! Cheers...🎉 Happy New Year 🎉🎉🎉

    Yes, it is important to recognize these emergency services people. I can give an account from my son in law. He does not speak of it. He is a fireman and attended a very similar suicide traffic event like this. The road was an access road to a city mountain lookout, and after a long straight stretch at the bottom terminated at a T intersection with an arterial road. The arterial road had a stone retaining wall at the opposite side of the intersection. The driver had loaded his Subaru WRX with a few extra litres of kerosene to add to the effects. The fire brigade was the first to attend. In searching for human remains, it was very difficult to even identify the gender of the driver. All in a days work.... toughen up... get on with it.... no counselling offered.

    It's surprisingly rigid. It and the back of the limo made mincemeat out of the front. Especially when you take into consideration the fact that coach builders cut a saloon car or a Hummer H2 or whatever in half and weld a tube full of disco equipment and other stuff, and that's how limos are made, so you're also accounting for the crimp in structural rigidity as expected from a cut and shut. However, truth be told that limos tend to end up stronger than the original vehicle.

    OK, I used to drive a cargo van for a local hospital. The hospital was delivering meals to a local nursing home. The drive to the nursing home was through the mountains and was a very arduous drive. As I came through the only straightaway on this particular drive I was able to accelerate to the speed limit which was 55 mph on that stretch. As I approached the end of that stretch there was a dump truck across both lanes. So I chose to take a gravel parking lot. When I hit the gravel the brakes locked up and I slid about 100 yards, and hit a fully loaded 60 foot long construction dumpster. All I remember was the windshield exploding and it looking like 1 billion stars. It exploded outwards. And then it came shooting back and raining in on me like 1000 bullets. After that it was dead silent. There was a little bit of steam coming from the radiator. The engine and transmission were sitting in the passenger seat. The van was totaled. And usually, as a matter fact every time other than this one, I had some rolling Cambro’s in the back, which I always had but I usually did not strap down. These are giant hot boxes to hold the food. On the return trip they are filled with the pans from the previous day. Every time I came down that mountain I did not strap those down. For whatever reason something told me that I needed to strap them that day. Had I not strapped them, those containers and the 500 pounds of pans would have went clean through me and out the front. I would say total it was about 2000 pounds of gear in the back. Like I said, I never strapped that shit down. That day I did and I survived through the grace of God. And also through the grace of God the dump truck driver accepted responsibility and I was able to keep my job and everything was taken care of by his insurance. Now I’m not saying I haven’t suffered consequences physically because of that over the years but I was young and I was able to bounce back quite well. But isn’t it interesting that that was the only time I ever strapped those down? Other than all the times I drove after that. Lol.

Doubt anybody would carry huge 1 ton items as well, so if it's a lot of smaller items, they wouldn't have the energy to do much damage, even all at once, they'd be hitting at different times, in different directions. Even then, as I said previously, it wasn't secured.

    I had a small business here in the US with some vans. One thing we found that must be considered is that when a vehicle, whether it's a van or not, is carrying a load, the braking performance is greatly affected. If you hit the brakes in an empty van, it stops pretty well (as long as everything's in good shape mechanically, of course). But if the van is heavily loaded -- even if the load is well secured -- the load's massive weight shift forward when you stomp on the brakes causes the stopping distance to increase dramatically. It's basic physics, but we didn't think much about it until one van got into a small accident precisely because of this factor.

    - I drove semi’s for close to forty years and with proper brakes in proper adjustment a loaded semi will stop as fast if not faster than a empty van due to the proclivity of the trailer tires simply locking up and skidding with out the friction caused by the weight on the tires and anti lock brakes don’t help in many cases they make the situation worse, you can’t overcome physics and the laws of gravity they heavily loaded tires just provide more grip

    That last crash is what a true 120mph impact force is like. Two cars hitting each other head-on at 60mph (combined 120mph) does not have an impact force of 120mph.

    2 cars travelling at 60mph towards each other. When they hit they stop dead. A car going from 60mph to 0mph whether it's from hitting a solid wall or another car doing 60mph is still only a 60mph impact. As above, I think there was a mythbusters episode which showed this and explained why.

    My family and I was in a head on collision with a sleeping driver. She was in a 2003 Ford Taurus. I was in a 2003 Ford F-150 supercrew. We were at the same speed here. 90 mph combined. I suffered with a shattered ankle with the tibia popping out. My wife in passenger seat broke her back and 4 ribs. My older son fractured his back. My younger son was in a child safety seat and suffered no problems except a bruise where the seat belt was. We all woke up 2 nights later in a hospital in excruciating pain across our whole body and couldn’t get back to sleep. Evidently 36 hours after a high energy accident all your muscles just cramp up. The other lady was unconscious right after the wreck. She had a shattered hip, pelvis and leg. She had a punctured lung and head trauma. Obviously the pick up truck saved us from more serious injury. This accident occurred in 2006. Our accident looked identical with both vehicles shown in your van-car accident. Everything went in slow motion to me right before it happened. I’m thinking that, just like a film camera speeding up it’s frames per second during filming to give you slow motion playback, my brain went into high speed computation mode to give me a slow motion view and memory playback.

    As someone who is a crash investigator, here are what the dummy injuries are likely sustained Peugeot 306: all 3 crash dummy's are dead Volkswagen jetta/Bora: minor injuries, possible whiplash, head and neck injuries if the car has no airbags Vauxhall van/ Ford transit: whiplash injuries, broken legs from deformed seat, possible spine injuries from the sand bag Limo: driver likely has broken legs, whiplash and face injuries as this model likely has no airbags considering it is a late 70s, early 80s vehicle Rear passengers: blue shirt head injuries and cuts and bruising, purple probably whiplash and neck pain Smart fortwo: likely dead driver, due to whiplash and deceleration forces, but also broken legs and neck as the seatbelts dont retract well Ford focus 3 door hatch: all occupants are dead from deceleration forces, you would experience 700g forces at average weight of 180lbs, (85kg) which would make you weigh briefly as much as a m1 Abrams main battle tank Edit: I know it's a passat but it's similar to a Jetta, which I have reviewed crashes for the Jetta.

    There should be sensors on the puppets. At the crash van vs. car, for example, you see that from the moment of crash the car not even stops, but goes back. The van is just slowing extremely down. That means there are much more forces against the car passangers than against the van guys. This doesn't result in damage that can be seen on the Dummies, but would cause internal injuries.

    Real crash test dummies do indeed have sensors. They are EXPENSIVE however, it was quoted the small child dummy they use as a back seat passenger in EuroNCAP tests costs around £100,000, with the driver dummy costing at least twice that. There is no way they would let the producers borrow half a million pounds worth of real dummies for these tests where they would likely (in the last test, almost certainly) be destroyed. In fact, that is the main reason Chinese companies cannot sell cars in Europe. After the first imported cars were tested and basically disintegrated up to the B and in some cases C-pillar, the cost in destroyed dummies was too much and the test facilities refused to test any more Chinese cars, meaning they could not get the safety certification to be legally sold in Europe.
