Title: Part 572 Q3s 3-year-old Side Impact Dummy (MAP-21) 
Abstract:

This rulemaking would incorporate a new anthropomorphic test device in title 49, part 572 of the CFR. The new device is a crash test dummy that represents a 3-year-old-child. The dummy, known as the Q3s, was developed to evaluate injuries to children in side impact crashes. NHTSA seeks to adopt the Q3s into part 572 because the agency has proposed to use the dummy in a statutorily-mandated rulemaking, adopting a side impact protection requirement in Federal motor vehicle safety standard No. 213, "Child restraint systems.” The side impact protection final rule is mandated by the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century (MAP-21) Act.
