Vehicle Safety and Crashworthiness

Vehicle safety and crashworthiness refer to how well a vehicle is designed to protect its occupants during a crash. Safety features include seat belts, airbags, crumple zones, and sturdy construction that absorb impact forces. Crashworthiness assesses a vehicle’s ability to minimize injuries by controlling crash energy and maintaining structural integrity. Together, these factors aim to reduce the risk of injury and increase occupant protection in accidents, ensuring the vehicle responds effectively to different crash scenarios for improved safety outcomes.
