The vehicle is positioned at a right angle in the direction of movement or at a small angle away from the perpendicular. A midsize, side impact male dummy is placed in the driver or passenger´s seat. This is a severe test of a car's ability to protect the driver and passenger's heads in a side impact.

The objective of a crash test for Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 208 is to measure how well a passenger vehicle would protect its occupants in the event of a serious real world frontal crash. This is sometimes referred to as the crashworthiness of a vehicle.

The Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) are U.S. federal vehicle regulations specifying design, construction, performance, and durability requirements for motor vehicles and regulated automobile safety-related components, systems, and design features.

214, “Vehicle to pole requirements.” Each vehicle shall be tested by impacting it into a fixed, rigid pole 254 mm (10 inches) in diameter, at any speed up to and including 32 km/h (20 mph).

Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) 214, “Side Impact Protection” was amended in 1990 to assure occupant protection in a dynamic test that simulates a severe right-angle collision. It was phased into new passenger cars during model years 1994-97.

The FMVSS 207 test is a simple quasi-static test carried out by applying a concentrated load at the upper seat back crossmember of the detrimmed seat back.
