   What determines a vehicle's crashworthiness?

   • A vehicle’s crashworthiness is determined by it efficiency of its structural load path. The biggest factor in a good structural load path is good BIW geometry which enables the vehicle to absorb impact energy. Contrary to current belief, a stronger structural member is not always desirable for crashworthiness.
