Seatbelt use remains a serious safety concern as two out of every three fatalities in Georgia involve unsecured occupants. GTIPI’s Rollover Simulator, donated to The University of Georgia by Ford Motor Company and designed by the Gober Brothers of Dawsonville, is an actual 1995 Ford Ranger pickup truck mounted on a trailer operated by hydraulics. Crash dummies Vince and Larry are placed in the Ford Ranger pickup truck without wearing safety belts. A 35 mph rollover crash is simulated and the audience can observe the results of not being properly restrained. Crash dummies are then buckled in for a second simulation demonstrating the importance of wearing safety belts.

When: Sat., October 2nd • 12 Noon | Where: Midway Annex Car crashes are the #1 KILLER of people in every age group from 1 to 34. Seatbelt use remains a serious safety concern as two out of every three fatalities in Georgia involve unsecured occupants. GTIPI’s Rollover Simulator, donated to The University of Georgia by Ford Motor Company and designed by the Gober Brothers of Dawsonville, is an actual 1995 Ford Ranger pickup truck mounted on a trailer operated by hydraulics. Crash dummies Vince and Larry are placed in the Ford Ranger pickup truck without wearing safety belts. A 35 mph rollover crash is simulated and the audience can observe the results of not being properly restrained. Crash dummies are then buckled in for a second simulation demonstrating the importance of wearing safety belts.
