         1.1 NAME OF STANDARD

         1.1.1 This Standard is the Vehicle Standard (Australian Design Rule 69/00 – Full Frontal Impact Occupant Protection) 2006.

         1.2 COMMENCEMENT

         1.2.1 This Standard commences on the day after it is registered.

         1.3 REPEAL

         1.3.1 This Standard repeals each vehicle standard with the name Australian Design Rule 69/00 — Full Frontal Impact Occupant Protection that is:

               (a) made under section 7 of the Motor Vehicles Standard Act 1989; and

          (b) in force at the commencement of this Standard.

         1.3.2 This Standard also repeals each instrument made under section 7 of the Motor Vehicles Standard Act 1989 that creates a vehicle standard with the name Australian Design Rule 69/00 — Full Frontal Impact Occupant Protection, if there are no other vehicle standards created by that instrument, or amendments to vehicle standards made by that instrument, that are still in force at the commencement of this Standard.

2.                                          SCOPE

         The function of this vehicle standard is to specify vehicle crashworthiness requirements in terms of forces and accelerations measured on anthropomorphic dummies in outboard front seating positions in full frontal test crashes so as to minimise the likelihood of injury to occupants of those seating positions.
