In May 2013 the World Health Organization (WHO) reported that more than 270,000 pedestrians lose their lives on the world’s roads each year, accounting for 22% of the total 1.24 million road traffic deaths. Despite the magnitude of the problem, most attempts at reducing pedestrian deaths had historically focused solely on education and traffic regulation. Since the 1970s, crash engineers have begun to use design principles that have proved successful in protecting car occupants to develop vehicle design concepts that reduce the likelihood of injuries to pedestrians in the event of a car-pedestrian crash. These involve redesigning the bumper, hood (bonnet), and the windshield and pillar to be energy absorbing (softer) without compromising the structural integrity of the car. With the advent

  • Beim Fußgängerschutz geht es darum, Verletzungen von Fußgängern bei einer Kollision mit einem PKW durch Anpassungen an diesem zu vermeiden oder in ihrer Schwere zu verringern. Entsprechende Tests sind Teil des Euro-NCAP-Crashtests, haben bei den Herstellern bisher aber gegenüber der Sicherheit der Insassen nur eine deutlich untergeordnete Rolle. Besonders gefährdet bei einer Fahrzeugkollision sind Beine und Kopf des Fußgängers. Untersuchungen zeigen außerdem Korrelationen zwischen Fußgängergröße, Fahrzeugtyp, Geschwindigkeit und dem Verletzungsbild. (de)
