Question 4207
Why must the front areas of the vehicle, such as the bumper or bull bars, not be modified?
- Because the vehicle loses aerodynamics and, therefore, top speed.
- Because they are usually designed to minimize injury to pedestrians.
- Because any modification that affects the vehicle's bodywork is prohibited.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Because they are usually designed to minimize injury to pedestrians.
The front end of modern cars, including the bumper and hood, is designed to cause as little injury as possible when a pedestrian is hit. If you change these parts or install rigid bull bars, that protection is lost and injuries can be much more serious. Aerodynamics and top speed are not the reason.
