Battery Electric Vehicle Crash Test of a Thrie Beam Guardrail System
As the adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) gains momentum, our unwavering commitment to safety grows in parallel. Roadway departures, responsible for approximately one-half of all roadway fatalities, demand our attention. But what happens when EVs encounter traditional guardrails?
Guardrails have undergone rigorous testing over the years, yet the technology needs to evolve as the vehicle fleet changes. Recently, Texas A&M Transportation Institute (TTI) and industry leaders convened for a groundbreaking crash test. In this test, our researchers subjected a Tesla Model 3 to a 62-mph impact at a 25-degree angle with a thrie beam guardrail system-the same conditions used for MASH crash testing...

Driver Safety Tip #8: Be Cautious When Backing Up
So those are a bit of a fail…
Whoops!!!!
On the positive side, you definitely have a good reason to skip leg day.
Uh, so how is it installed? I learned absolutely nothing from this video. 👎
Next!
That’s gotta be the “cleanest”…well “almost cleanest” way to begin a cab-off rebuild of a heavy truck. Just “plane” a little off the top off the frame and you’re all good. 👍 😀😬
no thought given to drivers safety. but saves the the load.
Awsome !!!❤❤
What about the Fiberglass Semis ? You strike anything above that bumper in the front you’re in a big nothing.
If it had an engine in it, it wouldn’t be so disastrous.
I know you can get another person to blow into this, but I would also think there are other ways to fool it. IE. Filling something like a huge balloon and then attaching it to the interlock. You could make some sort of attachment for a leaf blower.. I don't personally have one. I probably have 5 to 10 drinks on average in a year. I'm just curious.
This is one of the most pointless fucking thing I’ve ever seen
Whew! Saved the cargo. Good job! 👍
Slightly used, one owner. No low balling, I know what I got
Well at least the cargo survived
😂😂😂😂😂🎉
How to remove an engine in two seconds.
Не хотел бы я быть водителем на таких успешных испытаниях.
Now try it with a full engine and transmission in it
It'll buff out. 2024 price adjusted for inflation, 35k, slightly used.
No problem, a little duct tape and some bondo, good as new.
The fact that you brought politics into a roadside barrier test video, pretty much identifies you are the actual crash test dummy here... Even 3 years later...try WAY harder...
But what use is something that just sits there like a solid barrier? It's not retractable.
It didn't look to me like there was an engine it. They engine wouldn't have been crushed like a can it would have pushed into the cab before the barrier.
You are right
If you watch closely when they show the slow speed front view you actually see the engine gets pushed down and back. You can actually see the engine block dropping out the bottom. You do have to look close and know what you're looking at and for but it is there.
Several of these look like they are designed to do more than just stop the vehicle.
Lol this is so inconvenient, but then again it's a privilege to drive and have a license so I get it.
Holy shit, the body isnt a solid steel box? Who knew? God damn what a waste of time and money. The result is obvious to anybody with the knowledge of basic physics.
If it's so obvious, why bother commenting?
@@codymoe4986 If the room is obviously on fire, and nobody knows, should you let them die?
Preferred they used a prostars or 9400i
Damn drunks! 😂😂
Every one of these truck crashes look fatal to the occupants
(04:58) (05:46) KIA ‘Pride’
Or first generation Mazda 121 in some parts of the world.
At least the tie downs hold
They need to make alcohol companies pay for all alcohol related issues legal and health wise they just pump this poison into society and everyone pays the consequenses
This doesn't help at all it's just a inconvenience
What if you are on a freeway with no where to safely stop, will it stop the car and cause a pile up?
That's a nice looking bus. I wonder if Aggie Spirit added it to the fleet after this test. Used to see so many of those back then. Nice tests too.
Saw a police officer use one of these on his patrol car 😂
Great lesson.
They make it sound so simple and cheery
well that sounds easy , and thank for the upbeat music in the background
Scammers
Thank you for alerting NextDoor readers to several example’s where pedestrians 🚶♀️ at night without reflective tape on garments and several examples of 🚶♀️🚶♀️🤔wearing reflective tape. To make myself perfectly clear - my statements reflect what I observed waiting to cross Chavez Blvd, Tuesday- Saturday twice a day for 12 months.
Die testen da ernsthaft mit nem yugo Coral 😮😮😂😂😂😂
Texans are retards
Now that's a lot of damage
Awesome! Do this with an Abrams tank next!
Well you can't save stupid 😢
These machines would be easy to fool by using a machine that simulates how a human breathes. It would be a relatively easy matter to create a human dummy with mouth apparatus to which the blow piece can be inserted or left mounted. The human dummy wouldn't need to be shaped like a person at all so it would be super easy to conceal inside of the chairs or other spaces inside the vehicle. Should a driver be pulled over or has to go in for mandated tests and calibrations there would be no evidence in the ignition system of tampering. Without a court approved search warrant for mechanisms that override the breathalyzer ignition lock the driver can breeze by without ever having to put up with these unconstitutional violations of their rights. Another option is to have a secondary ignition switch or button installed. Possibly with a toggle that is routed to an existing control panel button or switch. There is no way for the lock to detect whether the vehicle is in operation when it isn't getting real live data. check your local state laws to see which ones state it is illegal to charge an installation and service fee. Imagine these things being installed on an electric car. Some cars have room for a 2nd battery which could serve as the starter battery. So having the interlock setup on one for constant power and then the car's ignition on the other battery would be an effective bypass. There seems to be no sensor involved in whether or not the vehicle is in motion or use of any sort. Does this thing go off after the car has been parked when nobody is inside of the car? Collecting evidence of how it intentionally fails drivers is an easy use for dash cams that record video and audio with date and time stamps. Be sure to turn off any features that will allow the dash cam to delete existing files to make room for new ones.
Excellent and very informative video. Thank you for sharing.
I just want to know ? Who chose this music in the background ?
