This paper presents simulation experiments and follow-up investigations of the passengers' biomechanical criteria during the rollover of various types of busses. The evaluation process focuses mainly on the reduction of the risk of injury. The partial aim is to indicate the influence of the safety restraint systems.

Keywords: Bus rollover, bus crash, simulation, passive safety, biomechanical criteria, HIC, ECE R66.
