NHTSA Vehicle Crash Test Data
The US Government, through the NHTSA, has for
many years sponsored an elaborate collection of staged vehicle crash
tests. These include Frontal, Rear, Side, Rollover, Pole, Car to Barrier,
Car to Car and Sled Tests. They are conducted for the FMVSS, NCAP, and
Research purposes. NHTSA has recently placed the original crash test
reports on CD in order to easily distribute it to researchers, accident
reconstructionists, and other interested parties.
KEVA Engineering is making this complete data
collection available at a substantial discount to the Accident
Reconstruction Community at the discounted price of under $12.00 per CD
(under $0.60 per individual test report!!). If one purchases this data
from the US DOT - NHTSA directly, the price is almost 4 times higher.
Due to the fact that the NHTSA web site now has links to most of the publicly available compliance crash test reports, we have ceased providing the CD's containing these reports. We encourage you to go to the following link to obtain crash test data for a specific make and model vehicle:
