Abstract

Side impact is the second most frequent collision compared with frontal impact, accounting for about 30% of the total number of accidents. Indicating from the statistics, there is at least one child among 10 people died in the accident. It is noticed that children have a higher risk of suffering serious and fatal injuries in side impact than in other impact directions. Therefore, it is great important to protect children in side impact. However, procedure to test side impact performance of child restraint system (CRS) has not been agreed on yet in the world. This paper focuses on analyzing the difference between NHTSA and ISO 29062 side impact test procedures. It will help us perfect our automobile safety standards system and constitute our relevant laws as a valued reference through researching lateral impact dynamic test of CRS in other advanced countries.
