The report contains the results of a frontal impact crash test involving a Volkswagen (VW) Rabbit and an energy dissipating Enquist-Svensen-Vanke (ESV) luminaire support. The test was performed at the Federal Outdoor Impact Laboratory (FOIL) located in McLean, Virginia. The automobile impacted the ESV pole at 20 mph (32 km/h) on the front bumper. The impact location was aligned at the middle of the front bumper. The test data indicate that the hypothetical driver of this vehicle would be subjected to acceptably low values of impact velocity with the vehicle interior and ridedown accelerations. This test suggests the ESV pole meets both the AASHTO and NCHRP criteria for 20 mph (32.2 km/h) impacts with luminaire supports.
