9.5.1 Description of pedestrian protection
Some scientific institutes are concerned with the protection of the driver and passengers. And the latest designs and systems are being developed every day for reducing or eliminating the negative factors that affect their lives and health. However, until a certain point, no one cared much about the health of pedestrians. At present, the car's test system during crash tests includes checking the car for risk of injuries in case of hitting a pedestrian.
Since the beginning of such tests, many different manufacturing methods were introduced. The most notable of them is the hood of the car reclining on a special support. In this case, the hood will act as an airbag for the pedestrian by softening his blow to the head on the car.
