Rollover Simulator

Rollover simulator truck on a trailer
Description

The Rollover simulator gives individuals a visual representation of what can happen if they are involved in a rollover crash. Life-size dummies are used to demonstrate what can happen inside and outside of a motor vehicle during a rollover crash when an individual is unbuckled vs. buckled.

The simulator must be run by a member of the Kentucky Office of Highway Safety and will remain throughout your event.

 

You’ll need:

  • Good weather – Equipment is operated outdoors and cannot be operated in inclement weather. If a scheduled event is rained out, the Office of Highway Safety will work with administrators to reschedule if possible.
  • An open outside area with enough space for the truck and rollover trailer to operate and students to be able to view it from a safe distance.
    • A minimum space of 40ft x 40ft is needed to operate the rollover.
Sign Up:
