ISO 11096 pdf download Road vehicles — Pedestrian protection — Impact test method for pedestrian thigh, leg and knee
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies a test method for simulating the lateral impact between the front of apassenger vehicle or light truck vehicle derived from passenger cars (as defined in lSo 3833) and an adultpedestrian.
The test method addresses the reduction of pedestrian thigh, leg and knee injuries. lt is not applicable totesting for,or the evaluation of,injuries to other pedestrian body regions,nor does it directly cover thepotential risk of injury to children or human soft tissue. lt is not applicable to vehicles with deployable devicesdesigned for activation in the event of impact with a pedestrian.
