Visitors to AIMS in Melbourne this year could be approached by strange-looking figures in yellow and black... But don't worry: they're safe.
The crash-test dummy models represent the TAC and its howsafeisyourcar.com.au website. The site offers an extensive database and search facility to help compare cars on safety equipment and research crash-test ratings.
If the 'dummies' approach, you'll be asked to choose from five options and answer a question related to safety must-haves when making a vehicle purchase. For example, the Carsales Network answered correctly '4' to: What is the least ANCAP star-rating a buyer should look for?
Apart from the satisfaction of knowing your car safety advice, successful respondents are in line to win handy prizes, including a chamois, keyring and flashing mini light to give to your bicycle riding friends.
If the friendly crash-test dummies don't get to you first, show goers will find the TAC's stand between the Hyundai and Mitsubishi displays.
