Definition:
Full-width frontal impact crash test: The National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA) currently uses this procedure for their full-width frontal impact collisions. It’s a test that simulates two vehicles colliding head on. (You’ve probably seen the footage on TV.) Some question its accuracy because vehicles rarely collide 100% head on.
Examples:
A full-width frontal impact crash test simulates what happens when two cars collide head on perfectly aligned to each other.
