Euro NCAP | Pedestrian safety
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 окт 2011
- Pedestrian-vehicle crashes are responsible for more than a third of all traffic related fatalities and injuries worldwide. Many crashes involving pedestrians occur in urban areas where cars drive at relatively low speeds. The severity of injuries can be significantly reduced if appropriate countermeasures are taken on the vehicle front-end. Euro NCAP uses standardized tests that simulate the most common pedestrian-vehicle crashes to assess the level of pedestrian safety.

In my country a lot of people take their own sweet time and cross without looking at the oncoming traffic at all and even have their backside facing the traffic, they'll just assume the drivers won't hit them.......................And some even cross just under the pedestrian crossing bridge.........................
Speechless....................................................

40 km/h is usually the speed limit in built up areas but I've been seeing many pedestrians locally with disuse crossings even when they're a metre or so away. Any pedestrian who doesn't use a crossing safely will end in consequence.
It happens in expanding local areas within where I'm based and I see it many times.
In Europe not really. It is 50 km/h, but there are places that drivers will go up to 60 km/h.
@@paslechta Everyone goes 60 km/h but in "school zones" people reign themselves in and drive slow with ready breaks.
It's been 10 years... Still no changes.
What are you talking about- all new cars have raised front ends
What's the classical music called at the start
The pedestrian airbag feature is from Volvo and Land Rover
What about if a person os trying to escape from some looters
Some cars can turn it off
very happy
obviously a plastic container doesn't apply the same force as a human leg.
These should be government regulations everywhere
Anybody recognised Luxembourg in this Video
And by the way VOLVO 4 Life in terms of safety
Sound like "How it made" vhanel
EU :)
Windscreen airbags?! Are you kidding me?! I never expect the car to stop when I jump in front of me. I always pass on the other side when I'm 100% sure I'll have enough time to do it. As for the windscreen airbags? What if you hit something light that was on the road - some plastic container - at around 100 kph? How should I drive with that sh*t covering my windscreen and not crash into something else?!
V-Told you can ask the same about the normal driver airbag.
volvo.
How about pedestrians paying attention before they cross
screw that noise
no matter what you hit with these newfangled cars, it's gonna break and get real pricey real fast
I killed a young deer with my car, the previous owner too, the bumper is still perfectly fine
and I suere am not gonna get me a car newer than 2000 cuz I don't want to mess with no electronic garbage and fragile plastic bits
Cars that meet these standards are hideous. The front caps on them resemble a GMC school bus. The worst part is the same cars are now being sold over here in the US.
Airbags on the hood. Just another idiotic safety feature that'll just drive up the cost of vehicle ownership. A 1 1/2 ton vehicle going approximately 20 miles an hour will seriously injure someone upon impact no matter what engineers do. Computer sensors are not a bad idea, but maybe overall it's better for people to take personal responsibility for their own safety. That goes for drivers and pedestrians.
