  • Ford F-250 into front of Ford Focus NHTSA crash test
    The test mode was defined as the bullet vehicle moving at 38 km/h to impact the target vehicle moving at 72 km/h. The purpose of this test was to evaluate the aggressiveness of the bullet vehicle, a 2006 Ford F-250 pickup truck, and the vehicle and occupant response of the target vehicle, a 2002 Ford Focus sedan, in this vehicle-to-vehicle impact test.

    Found the injury measures on the NHTSA database.
    (Driver-Passenger)
    F-250:
    HIC: 307-433
    Chest G: 35-38
    Femur Loads: 3594/990 - 127/72 (N).
    Focus:
    HIC: 1500-1068
    Chest G: 86-58
    Femur Loads: 6539/7175 - 4671/5729 (N)
    The dummies were a 50th percentile male (approx 5'9, 170 lbs) in the driver's seats and a 5th percentile female (approx 5'0, 105 lbs) in the passenger's seats. Per NHTSA's old star rating formula, the Focus's driver would have an 82% risk of severe injury, the F-250's only 5%. In practice this means that a real-life driver of the Focus would probably be severely injured, but would most likely survive. A real-life driver of the F-250 would probably walk away with minor injury at worst. I'm not 100% sure on what forces 5th percentile dummies can withstand compared to 50th percentile, but suffice it to say the passenger of the F-250 would probably have minor injuries and the passenger of the Focus would probably be seriously injured, if not severely injured.

Heavier vehicle will normally present much bigger damage to the lighter vehicle, and if lighter vehicle did not have crumple zones at all, forces would be even higher. What also helps is to have more solid steel after crumple zones. This car crumpled more than it should. It felt like it was made completely of crumplonium.

    I hate pickup truck drivers (at least in my area). They buy them "to feel safer" but they arent safer except for certain circumstances like this one. Instead you just seriously injured or killed that guy in the focus. Now they just drive around like they own the road and act like assholes. (it's like a 8 to 1 pickup to car ratio around here)

    • @patrickshelley09
      @patrickshelley09 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Yep. Most of them hardly ever haul anything that requires a truck, they don't go off road and they drive like they're in a sports car. Then when they rear end someone because they were following too close or they flip over because they were driving to fast, they can't understand what went wrong. My favorite is when they fly by you on an icy/snowy road, confident in their 4 wheel drive and then several miles down the road you see them off the side of the road after they lost control.

    • @kingduckford
      @kingduckford 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      In my area, pick ups are a necessary part of life. Farming and rural life find very good use for a true pickup over an SUV or these modern short box pick ups that are just basically SUV's. Driven correctly, a 4x4 truck is vastly superior to a 2wd vehicle of the same weight rating on ice and snow, and we have a lot of ice and snow.
      I think the problem is urban/rural. People in one environment will drive them for a different reason than somewhere else.

      The problem is that 90% of people who buy trucks don't do truck things with them.

      Both vehicles were survivable. Just a worse day for the focus passengers. The test also doesn't take into account things like how fast either vehicle can stop or maneuver. I drive for a living and I can tell you I've had several incidents that I could avoid in a small nimble vehicle that would have been accidents in a large truck or SUV. Should we do a roll over test and then put "at least they got to sit up high and haul stuff with that truck" on the tombstone of the truck driver?

    • @buildthings79

      @@patrickshelley09 Yes but sudden overcorrections of steering to cause rollovers are a function of your driving ability. If your on a two lane road and the guy in the oncoming lane hits you head on there is not alot you can do about it. If you buy a vehicle that your setting yourself up to always be the smallest guy in a crash then that was your choice. I highly doubt that the Focus driver walked away or could even walk after that crash.
      Sitting up high also is more of an advantage while driving. You can see further down the road over other cars, past hills ,signs and embankments all giving you alot more reaction time to slow down and completely avoid what's coming. I was at Ford dealership a few years ago and saw a f350 in the repair lot for the body shop. It had hit a 3ft diameter oak tree at 60 mph. The front end was notched into the engine compartment atleast 3/4 of the way. They told me the driver walked away from it. You could still open the doors . I would much rather have 8ft of steel between myself and an object then 2 of plastic and steel. I own a metal fabricationand welding shop with a 12,000 lb lift to repair trucks and cars in it. I see what minimum amounts of steel they use to " improve your fuel efficiency " .

    • @patrickshelley09
      @patrickshelley09 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@buildthings79 There are times you need to make sudden and sharp steering adjustments. If your choice is hit an object or swerve, you swerve. Sitting up high does give you a visual advantage. But just like over correction is avoidable in most cases, sitting lower down means it's up to the driver to drive correctly when vision is impaired. I've driven small trucks, lifted trucks, large cars and small cars. I'd rather sit back a little and know I can stop or maneuver than be able to see slightly better. You can actually drive correctly and see what's in front of you in a small car. Just takes adjustment.
      Your example of the truck hitting the tree is more about the frame construction. A crown vic may have had similar results. I use the example of a crown vic because I lost control when I was younger and t boned a box truck on the freeway. Walked away. I likely wouldn't have lost control in a focus though (FWD vs RWD). But we're still talking about front end collisions. That doesn't factor in side impacts, roll overs or accidents avoided.
      My original point is that insulting people for driving a small fuel efficient vehicle is short sighted. When you buy a vehicle, you have to factor in a lot of thing. Fuel econ is very important for a lot of people. I save thousands a year on fuel because I drive a small car instead of an SUV or Truck (not to mention tire cost, insurance, registration, purchase price etc). I've also avoided accidents that I know I wouldn't have avoided in my crown vic, let alone a truck/SUV. I'm talking about accidents that happened in front of me, people suddenly swerving into my lane etc. To clarify, the accidents that happened in front of me were visible to me as they happened and sitting up higher would have given me no advanced warning. When it comes down to it, an accident avoided is much better than having a lot of steel between you and the other vehicle in any accident. And driving a heavy, high center of gravity vehicle makes it much more likely that you'll be in a roll over than I'm likely to be in a head on collision with a truck.

    Note that the F-250 was going 38 km/h (24 Mph) and the Focus was going 72 km/h (45 Mph). The passenger of the Focus receives a broken neck at 0:33

    • @ToyotaKTM
      @ToyotaKTM 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The reason they used different speeds for the two vehicles is to give them the same momentum, otherwise the wreckage would keep moving after the collision. Momentum is Mass X Velocity, so the F-250 has a mass 72/38 times the mass of the Focus (1.9 times heavier).

  • @michaelbujaki2462
    @michaelbujaki2462 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    If you look closely at the wheels at the 0:59 second mark, you can see that the wheels of the focus are moving much faster than those of the pickup.

    A listing of presumed injuries/fatalities would be helpful. It looks like there was enough space in the focus that the dummies didn't "die," but I'll bet they had lower body injuries.

    @belialclaytix4190 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I mean, I know this is a video trying to show you the damage caused by a collision, but for those thinking the car is particularly unsafe... It’s more that the truck weighs 3x as much as the car. The car will take far more damage simply because it is going to be hit with more of an impact than the truck will because the truck only feels the impact from the car while the car feels the impact from the truck... Which is far more.

      you feel safer until you realize that these sorts of collisions are rare and most vehicular deaths are single vehicle collisions. Heavy vehicles don't fare that well in single vehicle collisions, especially older ones.

      FALSE, the FOcus is going 44 mph and the truck is going 23 for a combined 67 mph. And that's a nearly 20 year old small car. Modern cars are WAY safer. Don't be stupid.

Honda was smashed clear to the windshield, driver and passenger ok, they had to haul that sucker off. Size does matter!

    thats the important thing, the ford focus was rated better in crashtests, but that was just measuring the ratio of weight and strengh. but in total the f 250 is stronger, because it is designed to carry more weight, even though in relativity the focus is stronger
