Captions provided by CCTubes – Captioning the Internet! The Global Vehicle Target is the new standard for testing autonomous driving and crash test systems.

Thanks to everyone at Thatcham Research! You can find out more about them at https://www.thatcham.org/ and about the target at https://www.thatcham.org/car-safety/driver-assistance/
