Head injury reduction with roll bar padding

Head injury reduction with roll bar padding

Potential injury mitigation of padding on vehicular roll bars was evaluated. After market and metal air gap padding markedly reduced the head injury criterion (HIC) angular acceleration and angular velocity compared to the stock foam roll bar padding.
