All Medan's Tough Fans, These Three Double Cabinet Picks From The US Get Bad Predicates In Safety

JAKARTA - Pickup truck models such as Ford F-150, Ram 1500, and Chevrolet Silverado, known as tough vehicles capable of passing through various terrains both on-road and off-road.

However, who would have thought that these three models would get the worst title in terms of safety.

This is evidenced by the results of a trial by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) 2023, an independent body engaged in road safety in the US.

IIHS grouped the results of the trials into four ranks Good, Acceptable, Marginal, and Poor with the test stages starting Tes Depan Tumpang Tindih Sedang and Tes Tabrak Samping Yang Diperbarui.

Reporting from Drive, Monday, November 27, IIHS scored Good on two pickups, namely Ford F-150 and Ram 1500 and Acceptable for Chevrolet Silverado in the Updated Side Collision Test.

However, for the Moderate Tumpang Tindih Front Test, the three pickup trucks received an 'Poor' or bad assessment. This is because the seat belt on the model line is considered inadequate.

Like most other class of vehicles, big pickups don't have a good performance in the new Medium Tumpang test compared to the Latest Side Collision Test, "said David Harkey, as President of IIHS.

The Tumpang Tindih Moderan Front Test is primarily designed to assess the safety of second row passengers after data shows rear seat passengers are more likely to be injured than front row passengers.

In the test, the Institution used a hit test doll in the second row, behind a 12-year-old driver's seat. According to reports, dolls in F-150 and Ram 1500 showed that there was a high probability of chest, head and neck injuries.
