Thursday, December 21, 2023

The increased illumination of LED (light-emitting diode) headlights creates a dilemma: It allows drivers to see more clearly ahead, but can cause additional glare for drivers in the oncoming lane. This has led to growing frustrations for nighttime drivers -- especially during the dark winter months. With more than 90% of accidents caused by human error, Nissan is enhancing headlight technology as part of its mission to protect people and help drivers avoid risky situations.

“The original moderate overlap test was our first evaluation and the lynchpin of the Institute’s crash testing program,” said IIHS President David Harkey.

Key Points: 
  • “The original moderate overlap test was our first evaluation and the lynchpin of the Institute’s crash testing program,” said IIHS President David Harkey.
  • However, the additional measurements provided by the new test show that most of them don’t provide adequate protection for the rear passenger’s head and neck — the most vulnerable areas of the body.
  • Features like rear seat airbags and seat belts that themselves inflate to mitigate the effects of crash forces could help too.
  • The test speed, offset and barrier used in the new test remain the same as in the original one.
