Abstract

The car, heavy vehicle and infrastructure industries all seem to be developing their own products in parallel with each other. Similarly, transport engineers, psychologists, medical staff and statisticians continue to work to some degree in isolation from the vehicle and infrastructure designers. This paper proposes a paradigm shift in road-safety and crashworthiness thinking. The design and performance evaluations of road safety systems needs to be considered aas part of an integrated crashworthy system, recognising both vehicle occupants and the road environment characteristics.
