Next generation crash test dummies test collision avoidance
Crash test dummies get all the glory in safety testing. In the 1980s and 90s, Vince & Larry were practically television stars. But not all safety testing takes place inside the vehicle. There’s an entire “team” of test dummies that have been completely ignored by the mainstream media and their […]
