HSRC visits IIHS headquarters for safety demos, research conversations

HSRC researchers and staff members took a field trip to Ruckersville, Virginia, on November 21, 2024, to visit the IIHS-HLDI Vehicle Research Center. The HSRC team lucked into being able to witness multiple safety demonstrations, including a partial crash test of a large truck, and participated in collaborative research discussions with IIHS researchers. It was a memorable and inspiring reminder of the impact of the important road safety-focused work that we do.

Here is a video of the crash test:

    "Through my work with HSRC, I have strengthened my ability to communicate with the public, engage communities in safety initiatives, conduct research, and translate findings into accessible information. After graduation, I plan to use these skills to help communities understand how effective planning can create safer, stronger cities and towns.
