Discuss why collision forces may penetrate deep into the front of the vehicle rather than into the rear, provided it is subjected to a comparable impact.

What will be an ideal response?


Even though both the front and rear of the vehicle are designed to collapse and fold up in order to dissipate the damage in a collision, a rear end collision will usually result in more localized damage because it is not as heavily reinforced as the front of the vehicle. Therefore, it will sustain more localized damage and the damage does not radiate as deeply into the vehicle as in a front end collision
