  1. Out of position

    Out of position, in crash testing and car accident medical literature, indicates a passenger position which is not the normal, upright and forward position. For example, a common case observed in crashes is the position of an occupant when reaching for the car radio, or panic braking in unbelted passengers. The concept is of interest because little changes in passenger's position, especially in rear impacts, can have profound effects on the actual kinematic response, as shown both by practical testing and theoretical models.
