A team of Swedish engineers have developed the first crash test dummy designed on the body of the average woman.
Since the 1970s, crash test dummies – mechanical surrogates of the human body – have been used to determine car safety.
The technology is used to estimate the effectiveness of seatbelts and safety features in new vehicle designs.
Until now the most commonly used dummy has been based on the average male build and weight.
Women represent about half of all drivers and are more prone to injury in like-for-like accidents.
