The phrase
"crash severity" refers to how serious or intense a car accident or crash is. It is a measure of the level of damage or harm caused by the collision.

The inflation rate of these dual - stage air bags adjusts depending
on crash severity and seat belt usage.
This system uses technology such as
crash severity sensors and safety belt usage sensors to help deploy the airbags in case of a crash.
The technology behind the front airbags takes into account several factors, such
as crash severity, passenger weight and driver seat position on the seat track.
Then the comparisons were adjusted to account for differences
in crash severity and driver gender.
Dual - stage second - generation driver and front - passenger air bags that tailor deployment based
on crash severity, safety belt usage and occupant size.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration recently published a study addressing the impact
of crash severity on the likelihood that a driver or passenger in a rear - end accident would develop health problems resulting from soft tissue injury.
Some systems require drivers to react to warnings, while others may automatically brake or steer a truck to
reduce crash severity or avoid a crash altogether.
Dr Blackman said despite reduced speed limits, crash rates and
crash severity around roadwork sites were high because drivers failed to slow sufficiently and were often not paying attention.
Air bags (multi-stage) Regulates the amount of air bag necessary for the front passengers
by crash severity.
The system integrates safety belt pretensioners, safety belt use sensors, a driver's seat position sensor, air bags with two inflation levels and a sensor that
measures crash severity.
Under the new rules, EDRs have to record a minimum set of specified data in a uniform format to answer questions
about crash severity, vehicle dynamics, and safety systems up to five seconds before impact and a third of a second afterward.
The authors used a nationally representative sample of police - reported crashes in the United States to show that, after accounting
for crash severity, front - seat occupants in vehicles with airbags had higher fatality rates than those in vehicles without airbags.
While most drivers would be considered lucky to survive with broken bones or slight head injuries, many suffer catastrophic injuries, such as traumatic brain injury, spinal injury, crush injuries or
other crash severities, requiring long - term rehabilitation, and possibly, life - long disability.
Safety The Highlander Hybrid has dual - stage front airbags that deploy at either of two intensities depending
on crash severity.
This is especially important when repeated tests over a range
of crash severities are needed to evaluate performance.

Hyundai says emergency braking works at up to 160 kph (mph) to slow the car and
reduce crash severity, to 70 kph (44 mph) for safe vehicle - to - vehicle braking, and to 60 kph (37 mph) for pedestrian braking and safe stopping.
Infiniti's Advanced Air Bag System adjusts inflation rates for the front air bags depending on
crash severity.
Nissan's Advanced Air Bag System includes dual - stage supplemental front air bags with seat belt sensors and an occupant - classification sensor that adjusts the inflation rate based on
crash severity and seat belt usage.
INFINITI's Advanced Air Bag System (AABS) includes supplemental front air bags with seat belt and occupant classification sensors, which adjust inflation rate depending on
crash severity and seat belt usage.
This system detects the size of an occupant based on weight and determines if there should be no deployment, low deployment or
crash severity - based deployment.
The Nissan Advanced Air Bag System features dynamic air bag inflation depending on
crash severity and seat belt usage.
This system incorporates seat belt sensors and an occupant classification sensor to inflate the dual - stage supplemental front air bags according to
crash severity and seat belt use.
If deployed, these airbags are capable of being inflated at different rates depending on
crash severity, seatbelt usage and other factors.
In terms of the safety, the BMW Assist eCall (Enhanced Automatic Collision Notification) system will notify the BMW Assist Response Center with information of vehicle location, airbag deployment, and
crash severity, then call up the most appropriate emergency response.
For instance, no single test speed or
crash severity is optimum for evaluating whiplash injury risk.

If deployed, the airbags are capable of being inflated at different rates depending on
crash severity, seat - belt usage and other factors.
Their inflation rate adjusts based on
crash severity and seat belt usage.
This system incorporates seat belt sensors and an occupant classification system to inflate the dual - stage supplemental front air bags according to
crash severity and seat belt use.
This suite of safety features includes dual - stage driver and front passenger air bags, thorax side air bags for front seat occupants, safety belt pretensioners, seat weight sensing system for the passenger seat and
crash severity sensing.
Researchers provided a summary of past data on
crash severity and its impact on whiplash associated disorders.
The research into these 207 people found a correlation between duration of symptoms associated with WAD and
crash severity, measured by mean acceleration and change in velocity.
Regardless of
the crash severity, the majority of these accidents occurred during daylight, in normal weather conditions, while the vehicle was going straight.
