Notice of Proposed Rulemaking: RETRO FIT ON-OFF SWITCHES FOR AIR BAGS; Vehicle Modifications To Accommodate People With Disabilities PDF, 126.85 KB

https://www.nhtsa.gov/document/notice-proposed-rul...

From 2004. To facilitate further the modification of vehicles to accommodate individuals with disabilities, the agency is proposing to expand the existing exemption from a statutory provision that prohibits specified types of commercial entities from either removing safety equipment or features installed on motor vehicles pursuant to the Federal motor vehicle safety standards or altering the equipment or features so as to adversely affect their performance. In response to petitions for rulemaking from members of the mobility industry, we are proposing to include provisions from the advanced air bag requirements, the child seat anchorage system requirements, and the upper interior head protection requirements in this exemption.

Investigation of Hybrid III Fifth Female Dummy Use in the Caravan Air Bag Test Environment PDF, 1.33 MB

https://www.nhtsa.gov/document/investigation-hybri...

Review of a proposed SAE paper documenting LTV aggressivity tests conducted by NHTSA brought to light some questions regarding the Caravan passenger-side airbag and/or the biofidelity of the head-neck junction of the small female Hybrid III dummy. An oblique crash test (reference NHTSA Crash Test Datbase # 2915) in which a ‘97 Caravan impacted into a ‘97 Honda Accord resulted in an unusually high neck response for the passenger occupant of the Caravan - a small female dummy belted and seated normally in a full forward seating position (i.e. not in an OOP condition). Review of the high speed film of the event revealed that the cushion deployed under the chin of the dummy and as the cushion continued to pressurize, the head was projected upwards, extending the neck to an extreme degree.
