CAR VS TRUCK - Rear Underride Crash Test

- Crash test car vs semi truck
Modern semitrailers for the most part do a good job of keeping passenger vehicles from sliding underneath them, greatly increasing the chances of surviving a crash into the back of a large truck, recent tests by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) show. But in crashes involving only a small portion of the truck’s rear, most trailers fail to prevent potentially deadly underride.

Man, the IIHS is such an underrated organization. These guys are saving countless lives with their thorough testing!
They r not saving dummy lives though 😢
I think NCAP has better testing but both are really good
they dont do rollovers
They don't! People don't drive 35Mph on a freeway! You're gonna get killed with this retarded system of testing.
Taunter Atwill that’s why you brake idiot
The fact that the car's only going 35 mph kinda scares the shit outta me
Minecrafty012 Same
Is that much in the US? I mean that are not even 60 km/h...
Yeah, imagine the hit at a full highway speed... Your car would turn into a cabriolet with your head missing in a second
Ikr just imagine if they crash going 60mph
Oh yeah... you do this crap going 60 on the highway and no little guard rail is gonna save you, you’ll be under the rear tires
I had an accident like these ones many years ago; I was under medication and fool of me I was driving a long distance trip. I must confess that I fell asleep and crashed a trailer, I was driving a 1998 dodge sedan with no airbags, the difference of speed should have been of around 40 mph and the impact was in between 30 and 50% of the front of my car on my side! Fortunately the trailer had a very strong full-width dot bumper, very low and with posts at the outer extremes of it. My car was absolutely destroyed and I got hurt mainly on my left arm but not too bad as I was conscious and left my car walking by myself!!
I was extremely lucky.
Wow. Glad you survived. Must have been traumatic experience.
Extremely blessed to be telling the story. Stay safe!
Oh my gosh dude! Your immortal like no one would survive that!
I am glad your okay.
No,everyone around you on the road is extremely lucky you didn’t take them out with your moronic driving while drugged.
The music makes it sound like the dummy is in a boss fight with the end of that trailer and keeps respawning.
Real MVP!
😂
LOL
This is why I usually drive from the backseat.
@Beloved Truth r/whoooooooooooooooooooosh
Loooll
Christopher DeLuca, You must have reeeaally long limbs! 😄
How can you drive from the backseat Huh??
Xd
How did the guy inside not get hurt and still drive 6 times into a truck? That's insane
@@antoniojmonetti oh thanks for reeling me...so if that's not a human. How can the dummy drive the car, that's even more crazier. How can the dummy control the acceleration and breaks etc? I live in the UK and you?
@@antoniojmonetti ah that's cool you live in the US. Were abouts. So the cable pushes the car along and then the dummy cuts it before he gets in?
@@antoniojmonetti so your saying that the cable pulls the car and the dummy guy cuts the cable inside
@@antoniojmonetti ah OK I get it thanks. So what's the point Of The dummy being in the car if he doesnt drive it or cut the cables?
Stop it u two 😂😂
My dad saw 2 people in a convertible get decapitated due to this. It’s gruesome as hell.
I have a convertible..... I worry about that everytime I hit the road.
my dads best friend and his wife were decapitated frm this kinda accident, except they was going highway speeds..their heads was in the backseat.
then 1 day going to work (on the highway) a guy in a trailblazer hit the back like 2o% on the side. pushed the A pillar into B pillar..steering wheel crushed his guts..still alive..i drove past 1 min after it happened..come to find out the dude who was driving worked at the place i did..they let talk to his twin 6 yr old girls (on the phone) because they said as soon as they release the pressure off his stomach he was gona die..and he did smh i don't follow semi's period. gas it and pass it is my rule.
@@shadowsfad3d Jesus... I usually don't stick behind semis, because I've seen cars to get sandwiched between, but this story is something else.
it's how Jayne Mansfield died.
1:00 Airbags ain't saving you there buddy. :(
This is the 1st time in my 29 years of truck driving that I see a DOT bumper test. Very informative. Thank you for posting.
I hope I'm never in that situation
+lRaziel1 because your mom told me not to.
William speller kills a lot of people
Might want to put a little more context into that, Jaden. It wounds like you said William kills a lot of people when maybe you meant "that could kill a lot of people"? Or is that your intent, to tell that sort of thing? Nah, not poking fun. I'm just saying.
I hope nobody is ever in the situation.
Well don’t txt and drive and you’ll be fine
The guy inside the car must get paid very good, he’s been down for every single test... best employee ever
Him and his girlfriend are top notch employees
@@chrispalmer3548 thats a drean
5:07 my god his head HITS THE TRAILER!
Very bad
Zoinks...
Instant death
And at 1:30
Fatality!!!
I reckon they should use a watermelon as a head for that more realistic look.
They have sensors in the dummy that tell how much force was transferred to the dummy.
How about ballistics dummies
If our heads popped as easily as watermelons, we would have people dying in hilarious ways
@@austinprice770 Well it's sort of hilarious, people are usually in that case beheaded
@@enki7952 but I mean you would have people tripping on the sidewalk and having their heads explode 😂
So basically don't tailgate semis if you don't want to find out what they taste like
Don't have to be tailgating for that to happen, all it takes is a rusted brake line...
Taste like brains
@@6484373 This isn't the 50s or 60s before dual master cylinders, I rode with a rusted line more than once and you do not lose all your braking power that way.
@@101Volts You likely won't lose all braking power, but that is still half as much braking as you would usually have to stop when you're not expecting it. I have had an experience where all my brakes went out in a 2002 model year car, which isn't supposed to happen but it did.
ExcessMean still your fault for not maintaining your vehicle dip shit.
1:40 Airbag: I tried my best :'(
RIP to all the dummies who died while making this video .. 😢
Those dummies are made of highquality materials so they dont have to buy for every testva new one...
RIP to all the dummies that died in real accidents

are you kidding me?

Crazy conclusion: if you're going to slam into a trailer, do it full on.
I thought the same. Or just do it on the side your wife is on.
Yeah if you don't want your head smashed
@@Thenotfunnyperson kill two birds with one stone
@@Thenotfunnyperson fuck you toe head
@@user-er5xj7nx5q what kind of insult is toe head..I'm fucking dying lol.
Haven't you heard not to take anything someone says on the internet too seriously haha. I'm guessing he's joking, even if it is a dark joke.
I drive a 18 wheeler, people ride my ass all day and i dont understand it. Maybe they need to watch this video.
I always play by the rule of seeing the mirror.
It's not tailgating that's the problem. Almost any car or light truck can stop much shorter than your freight truck. It's the texting, daydreaming, alcohol, dope, etc.
Todd Bow my truck can stop a lot faster than your rig, it’s when people don’t stop because they are too busy looking at their phone/burger/cigarette, whatever it is. And plow into rigs. Those are the people who should watch this video
@@Beandiptheredneck plot twist: they watch this video instead of focusing on the road, crash into semi
@@PeterB12345 XDDD
Lesson learned: just before impact move your car in such a manner that your passenger gets it.
By the way when the trafic investigation is done it might just show it was on purpose if u r lucky u might catch a manslaughter case
Or atlesse a involuntary manslaughter
dre murray Ever heard of a joke, turd?
@@theinfinite2653 manslaughter by definition is involuntary
@@akinji3075 Involuntary Involuntary manslaughter? If you're giving a stranger a ride, and you're heading straight towards a truck, what would u do? Angle the car so you take the most of the impact? Or Angle the car so the strager takes the impact? Be honest.
Scary to think that so many trailers are just not suitable for highway collisions. Even with the brakes locked on, you are probably still travelling 35mph. The amount of cars sacrificed in this video is remarkable.
Dude those big rig trailers are invincible by the looks of this.
They do weigh 15,000 pounds empty on average. The tractor that's pulling it weighs 20,000 pounds without a trailer. The trailer is usually loaded with about 45,000 pounds of whatever.
Just don't give it to swift
Actually the floors and rear frame rails are junk after a hit
u worry about the retirement or high cholesterol, but in reality driving is the single most dangerous activity u do everyday.
Thanks Obama
not really if you're good at it and obey traffic rules you should be fine for the most part
Slapshot Jack Except for the millions of morons out there who don’t. The ones coming at you that you can’t control.
Yeah, retirement is super dangerous! lol
Some jobs like logging and crab fishing is more dangerous by percentages if you work them
Wow this is amazing. We drive and have no idea which trucks are save or which car have passed these test. This is something a lot of us don’t really look into when buying a car.
Great video glad to see that trailer company's are being made to improve the crash safety of their trailers
It would be better if people would either learn how to drive, or stay off the road.
@@daltonbrink9924 exactly.
I love the part where he stopped the crash with his face
J Cee what the heck man

The dummy is Dead
Your nose is the crumple zone.
🤣
Take that puppy to los santos customs and fix up the paint job, good as new
Only 250$
Im dead😂😂
Whats wrong with her now???
I wish ....
Gta is trash
I remember my dad telling me that one of the most horrifying things he had ever seen was a 2CV pancaked under a truck on the motorway.
Damn..... that would have been a horribly thing to see. Poor people in that car, atleast their deaths were quick by the weight of that truck. 😕
Who’s the monsters that gave this over 2k dislikes? Saving lives is disliked. Trolls and the mentality deranged. This may save your loved one someday
Engineers maybe or insurance companies
Only at 35mph... Wow!
The speed is relative so it IS pretty bad, at highway speeds for example, these crashes are accurate for the trailer going 55mph and the driver going 90mph.
35 mph difference between semi & car
Woow 560 mph
Если скорость будет выше, то и последствия соответственные.
@@MrSwaggernaut83 good observation!
Not to worry his face absorbed a good portion of the impact
crumple zone
Respect to the mechanics who fixed the car each time!👌
Respect to the medics who patched up the guy driving 👌
Cute joke
@@RockyFoxxowo shut up furry
@JB thanks
This is wonderful. My wife lost a childhood friends to a trailer incident exactly like this. Now answer me this, what kind of moron dislikes this footage??
Can you shut the hell up, who cares about your wife's childhood
@@willhemwill5595 wtf man
Just take it to a Pay N' Spray
my car was totaled and the repair shop told me it was beyond repairable, took it to the pay and spray and it was good as new for $100!!!
@Brian The Explorer not in liberty city they dont
Dang! That must really hurt.
Hesoyam is a better solution, and you get extra 25k 😂😂
I bet you will look at the back of semi trailers differently every time now
C SMITH I hope you’re right...
honestly
C SMITH Nope, I haven’t.
No. Nothing will ever stop these idiots on the road from driving like assholes.
While your at it, look at the back of Schools
Busses too.
This is awesome. The pieces of engine flying past the camera in slow mo was like the matrix
It's crazy how fast these guys rebuild the car after they crash it the first time
Or even buy all of them
they got rally mechanics
Pay N Spray lol
-_-
@Владимир Владимирович No its the same car rebuilt.
This is scary because some of the dummy's head got crushed in the trailer..like the whole thing tore the roof of the car off and crushed his head...image a real person in that...
RASHAD RUSSELL hahaha
Nur Chua What is so funny about a person getting his/her head cut off in a car accident? I would sure love to know the reason that is so funny
@Moritz Schmidt my thought exactly
@Moritz Schmidt what if your family sues the truck driver / company
Ugh my gut
Anyone else notice how the truck light is invincible
the solution to crash safety. drive a tank instead.
Rip gas price
Gta 5 tank 👍🏾
Goodluck with 1 mpg of fuel consumption.
Just type /tp to go where you want. That the safest way to travel
Drive a semi
Can we just appreciate how well Manac did?
As a tow truck operator, I see this every now and then. It's amazing what can happen to a vehicle, and a human.
Watched this because thats my car. Lesson learned: get a trailer
I've never been so happy to see Chevy Malibu's getting destroyed :)
It's really scary to see how a car can break into pieces in a matter of seconds
Try .2 seconds.. happens fast. Airbags are insane inventions that work very well. Unless you drive under a simi
I pray no one ever gets in a situation like this!
In India, tipper lorrys don't even have that steel thing on its back to stop the colliding vehicle. We just go to its wheels while the upper part will decapitate us.
The humanity is able to explore space but not able to Build safe trailers....
Chief Ray Or better yet, safer cars. Trailers can take alot of damage especially if they're carrying a heavy load, but the driver.. R.I.P
Chief Ray the problem has nothing to do with "safer" trailers. It has everything to do with assholes on the road not paying attention and running into the vehicle in front of them. Want to stop that problem ? Remove ALL the safety bs from vehicles along with all warning labels from everything. Lett the retards cull themselves from the herd.
Chief Ray it's not the trailers job to worry about the idiots behind it. But if the idiots behind it paid any attention to the car in front of them then they can avoid this. And you aren't supposed to ride right behind these trailers anyways.
Explore space? You mean spending all of the country's money on the military... 2% of it goes for "Space"... now that's where humanity is fucked, when all of it goes for military...
ROTAXD if i'm on highway min 60 mph and truck stops suddenly (another car in front of it had issues) but i kept 2 car spaces between us, do you still think I can make it? I wanna say there are 100 seniors that are not often fault of the driver behind trucks!!!
I saw this happen in real life when I was in high-school about 11 years ago when texting and driving dangers weren't as well known or regulated. The semi truck stopped at a red light and the person in the car was texting and driving going probably 30mph and didn't stop in time. It was fatal, obviously, and scarred me for life. I refused to drive for about 5 years after I witnessed that, and still after I have the utmost respect when I'm behind the wheel because of how dangerous it is to operate a vehicle.
I guess the 2400 dislikes are from 2010 Chevy Malibu owners.
Lol, they are death traps😂 Look at the way the roof peels back
So horrifying to see car crash like this
Please no text or talk on cell phones when you driving
So basically on most of those trailers the welds were just for show.
Yes. The DOT Bars (thats what they are called in the US) are not made to take that kind of force.
@@BrowncoatInABox Their actual name is an ICC Bumper (DOT is industry slang),and they are specifically designed to collapse at a controlled rate ,otherwise it would be like hitting a brick(or steel) wall.
@@kasmanien "hitting a wall".. isn't it much safer in this kind of situation? I'd prefer brick solid bar under the trailer
@@equim7363 The design is intended to dissipate the energy from impact gradually ,where as a "wall" would just reflect the energy back all at once causing it to be absorbed by the vehicle hitting it ,this design though spreads the energy from impact out to the ICC Bumper,the vehicle,and the trailer chassis.Of course if the impact is great enough all of this is basically pointless because you're dead,no matter what the details may be.
Id rather have an engine get pushed in and break my legs than have my head decapitated by the trailer. This is basically a cheap way to produce semi trailers.
I got so into this for some reason, that I found myself cheering at the crashes where the trailer successfully protected the cabin
Whew that 2015 Chevrolet Malibu 😭 remember to never get a Chevrolet
The music alone makes this hard to watch.
Ikr I thought the beginning was the horn
They need to start installing ejection seats in cars
Searching High And Low lol
Hah, I'm sure James Bond has one. :p
Searching High And Low What. Why!! The people would go flying through the air and possibly get hit by another car or just go splat on the ground and die
Ejecto seato cuz!
Yeah then you can just fly into the back of the truck
1:15 that fitment tho👌
Good videos that I’m showing my teenage son as I teach him to drive.
Can someone plz drive me home i am not feeling like driving 😐
sahil amaan as long as you put your phone down and just drive the damn car as it was designed to be driven you will be just fine.
@3:20 hey, man, even passengers can get brutally fucked up
@@m.k.mcgill I know that all to well...ill never have children again...be careful when you ride bikes
sahil amaan just don’t tail gate and keep your eyes on the road and both hands the wheel. You’ll do fine
Just get a Uber
Being a driver for 7 years, a car rear ends a trailer, you hardly feel anything. Also, while these four wheelers are tailgating, they completely disappear. Scary stuff
Moral of the story:
Sell your car and buy a truck
Amen
Buy a semi, and drive it backwards.
Sad part is I can back my truck into a spot better than most people can part a normal car
@@gregorystell6858 I couldn't tell you why, but I can park big SUVs and pick-up trucks FAR better than I can cars. I guess it's because I grew up driving big light duty trucks. My back up camera on my Fusion just makes me look like I'm parking drunk all the time, but if I use the mirrors I can back that ass up.
@@OhPhuckYou a lot of car drivers let their parking skills slip because they don't have to think anything of it. When I park my semi I have to remember whats around me because there's no such thing as a minor accident in my truck and a lot of bad things can happen
The creepy music in the beginning makes it even better. Thank you!
After seeing those initial tests I think I’m going to stay about a mile behind any tractor trailers on the highway just in case!
Same!
I can only imagine the real life mess first responders have to deal with on a fail day
This is more spine chilling than any other horror movies tbh.
If you hit the trailer right, it’s a death sentence
5:15 when you compliment and she replies with “haha thanks”
I gave a likes for free bastard 😂😉
Most American trailers don't have side under-ride guards either. That's why that Tesla driver died, the car went straight underneath cutting the driver's head off.
Damn dude i can't even imagine that horrifying scene.
Tesla driver died because the technology failed to register a fucking big rig in the lane, AFTER the truck driver failed to see him coming. tech and complacency killed the man, not a lack of guards.
+fluffykittynoodles Obviously, a guard on the side of the trailer would stop drivers from dying, when Autopilot failed is another matter entirely.
+Floppydopda maybe. but it more than likely would have never happened if the tech caught the trailer ahead of him, or he was driving.
+fluffykittynoodles Yes, I agree with that
Instead of calling it "Trailer Underride Testing" they should call it "Texting Testing".
Thank you very much for this perfect video ♡
man that's a sweet job crashing new cars everyday
SWATBOSS2014 doesn't matter if it's not the new car for that year. But if that car hasn't ever been bought, does that make it used? No. Dumb fuck
Ots basically the frame of the car with a weight. There arnt usually electronics or engine in the car. Its pulled by a chain under the floor that propels it forward
2002altima No sorry, that positions filled. For you though, the "sweep up the mess" position is available.
It is.. until the day you test the car you own and find out the true results.
This commercial was brought to you by Ford. lol
You never seen Ford test crash, right? There are reasons they hardly published it...
I was wondering why they only showed the Chevy car repeatedly failing xD
@@calvinnyala9580 Ford trucks are top notch, and one of the safest on the market. I guess their cars don't do too well :/
@@raritica8409 if I'm going to insert Ford joke here, it's because they are safe since they are stowed in mechanics garage
Swooooosh that’s the sound of this going over your head. Stay is school folks.
in Europe, trailers are fitted with protective bars to prevent death. One of them saved my life.
Impresionante y genial trabajo GRACIAS
That why people prefer high front bumper car
EXACTLY !

so if that's 35 imagine you're car going 180
Alex Bones Going from 180 to 0, you are dead, doesn't matter what you are driving.
Ron Heimler i saw a video of the mini cars i think or some other car thats very small. they act like a shell of steel in these very fast situations :)
Ron Heimler The crumble wouldn't save anyone at that speed. If you hit something capable of stopping your car at that speed you die due to the brutal deceleration.
Woke. we have a road in Texas that has a 85 mph limit.
and I texas you add ten mph , so cars are up to about 95.
God bless Texas
Justin Webb 95 or not that's a huge diff from 180
Ok I’m officially scared to drive now....thanks
Heinrick: Dont be scared to drive. Pay attention to it 100% of the time and dont "get stupid" . wrecks happen when people "get stupid" and it may be the other guy that gets stupid so have an escape route mapped for when he does.
Make it a habit and in a few years youll find yourself doing it without thinking about it.
Expect the unexpected
To my friends while driving: wanna see what the inside of a tractor trailer looks like?
No 19887 cars now

Funeral music is spot on 👌
Had a similar crash one month ago. A massive tree fell right before my windscreen whilst doing 35. It bounced back up and struck the windscreen head on, rolling over the roof. I can hardly believe I survived that one.
4:56 Damn, that's quite an ending
Love the music
People:*goes for a ride with their car*
Trailer:im boutta end this mans whole carrier
love your channel. no overbearing music and no commentary.
Last year there was this exact situation with a family I was close to. (If you wanna see the damage look up “Van Horn crash”) A mom was carpooling her kids along with another family’s children when she slammed into the back of a truck. I guess these guard rails didn’t exist and this is the aftermath. It was also found out later that the mom was distracted while driving. 2 lessons learned from that horrible event.
This is a good example of why you should never follow semi's too closely when driving at high speeds (like on highways). At city speeds (under 25 MPH) it's not as bad probably, but this should be enough to make you think twice before tailgating a semi on the highway. As they always say in driver's ed, "always leave yourself an 'out'" (meaning leave enough room).
Lol how many Malibu's did they have? Also love the Mount and Blade music lol
Damn.. just RIP to all them perfectly good cars
none of them were perfectly good, they were all chevy malibus
@@facepalm7345 That version of the Malibu was actually quite decent, but I think they were all the base LS models so not the biggest loss in the world.
those chevy malibus probably had engine problems and transmission problems.
@Ike N if this research even saves one life it's not a waste. You can work and buy back these cars. You can't earn enough money in this world to buy back your life.
No perfectly good cars were destroyed in the making of this video.
This was hard to watch even with just crash dummies....
These videos are awesome..👍

Man, am I the only one impressed on how those old bumpers on those cars are still fully intact, hardly looks like it even got dented!
Basicly you are %99 dead if you ram a truck trailer from back
Yep
Right
Haha, don’t hit it from the back and you may live 😉😂
The New Bronco..... Bucking Awesome!
Car goes boom!!!
why do American Trucks have so much space between where the wheels are and the end of the trailer? Here in Europe trailers are built in a way that the wheels are as close to the rear as possible
cause murica
And that right there is the problem but for some reason they ignore it. Sliding axles should always be at the rear of the trailer and only moved forward for maneuvering purposes.
The axles can slide back and forth for weight distribution adjustment.
Because hamburguers are bigger in Murica.
cause real Americans use real cars
Omg 😦 at 5:03 it completely obliterated the car! Literally tore the car open like a bag of chips!
The most effect and beautiful video
