I know that cars starting in 1987 were legally required to pass a 30 mph frontal crash test with HICs of less than 1,000 for each occupant, not sure about 1984. Anyway, the passenger's HIC of 902 is pretty close to that limit.
A 1987 Golf tested at 883 for the driver and 406 for the passenger, average '87 car was 609 driver and 404 passenger. If the cars had automatic crash protection (automatic seat belts or air bags) they were tested with just the automatic crash protection, i.e. if there was an air bag, that occupant would be unbelted. If they didn't have automatic crash protection, they were tested with the standard seat belt system. This test configuration lasted until 1997, by which time it was effectively an unbelted test as pretty much all cars had air bags by then.
The '84 and '87 might have had some sort of auto-belt, but air bags didn't appear in a Golf until 1994 (in the US).

Also can be Vw Rabbit/ Caribe / Golf MK 1. In México the Golf its called Caribe :)
I have one
Caribeña asi le decimos le muchos en México 1977-1987
This is a Vw Rabbit / Golf MK 1.
I wonder if the seatbelts are the passive restraint ones (the ones that don't have the lap belt) that might explain the knees rocketing right into the kneeboard without stopping.
Fixed. Thank you.
Was the Mk 1 still sold in 1984 in the US? Here in Germany, the Mk 2 hit the market already in 1983.
The Mk1 were build in Pennsylvania until 1984

I saw a 1984 Rabbit GTI today so yes.
WAY old comment, but a little more explanation than anybody else is giving you.
The US is pretty much always a year behind. our first mk2s were the 85 model year. Our first MK3s were 1993. MK4s were 1999.5.
mk5s were (for the most part) 06.
seatbelt didnt do anything for the passenger!
no sound?
anyway there was the full belt on the dummy the knees hit the dash bord a lot in cars in a crash but it will only give u a broken leg if and it can happen in new cars but if the G stay in line it would not be to bad for u just a broken leg
any way there was a full seatbelt on lap and shoulder he hit his knees because the dash moved and there is a lot of force in a crash but in this crash sorry to say u would 80% be dead in this crash you hit your head so your brain hits your skull and that is not good at all
Forces on the dummies were not high enough to cause death. The driver and passenger would probably have concussions, but it takes a HIC of around 2,200 for there to be an 80% risk of death (and around 1,300 for even a 2% chance of death), and this was 603 and 902, which would be a negligible risk of death.
