Here’s what will happen. The data will be reviewed and it will be decided at the car passed after all.

"Apparently, women in the fifth percentile of body size (approximately 5 feet tall and weighing 110 pounds) are slightly more likely to suffer a neck injury during a frontal collision if they're not wearing their seatbelt. "
only applies to a small percentage of owners in more interesting news ... tried to do yaris roadtrip 11 this week but couldnt make it hopefully next week |

"The test it failed is a front rigid barrier crash, specifically with a 5-foot-tall, 110-pound female in the driver's seat who is not wearing a seat belt."
But, doesn't everyone wear a seat belt? |
