When will NHTSA be adding dynamic testing results to its rollover resistance rating system?
In direct response to the mandate in the TREAD (Transportation Recall Enhancement, Accountability, and Documentation Act) Act of 2000 to develop a dynamic test for rollover, NHTSA announced on October 7, 2003 that beginning with the 2004 model year, the agency would “enhance its current rollover ratings system with the addition of a dynamic track test.” NHTSA decided that the dynamic test will use the so-called “fishhook maneuver,” – a sequence involving two abrupt turns initiated at different speeds which CU believes is an effective maneuver to evaluate rollover resistance.
