Mrs Meyerson made a presentation on the new US ejection mitigation rule – FMVSS 226 (PSI-02-05). The goal of the rule is to increase occupant protection in rollovers and side crashes. It is expected that the rule will lead to larger airbags, longer inflation times and improved sensors. Mr Hogan noted that the NHTSA had assumed no benefits in relation to rollovers and ejections when it amended FMVSS 214 and queried whether any of the benefit data for FMVSS 226 might have relevance to a Pole Side Impact GTR and whether this could be extracted. |
